Opening day was spent with 5 great guests, 2 in my boat and 3 in a tag-a-long boat and we started out working deep water over submerged stumps with Reeves jigs tipped with large fatheads. The deep water stumps produced several walleye with a few being keepers but the rest were mostly on the small side. Spending the day working various depths and structures, we found some nice eyes mostly in 10 feet of water around rocky points and drifting over submerged wood. Tried a good number of shallow wind blown bays but only one held a good amount of fish and they were smallies, caught roughly 10 of them in 5 feet of water over submerged wood along with some scattered rock. Along with the walleye and smallies, we also boated some nice jumbo perch along with a few nice size pike. Very busy out there yesterday, most boats that I've seen in years. All in all, it was a good opener, no big fish but a good amount of action from multi species and enough fish for a big fishfry for the gang. Thank guys, it was great spending the day with you, already have you plugged in for next years opener.

Back out today, will keep you posted.
