Walleyes on absolute FIRE!

When my alarm went off at 4:00am this morning I had a nervous knot in my stomach. After a storm as brutal as we had last night and high, hot skies forcasted for today, I wasn't crazy confident in what the day would bring fishing. Regardless I met up with Merryl and Dean at 5:00am to head out to catch some walleyes. We launched the boat at daybreak and headed in route to my first spot of the morning. Current blown timber on Lake DuBay has been pretty good as of late and almost always and some weedless jigs and a half a crawler were my plan.

It wouldn't be long and we boated our first walleye, a short. We then boated a 15.25" eye and a catfish. As the sun rose we had a few bites but things slowed up quite a bit. We continued to move along as the wind began to pick up and it was a fish here and a fish there. Not real impressive. Then as the wind began to max out everything went gonzo. Off the water by 1:00pm, we boated 21, yes 21 walleyes over 15" with the three biggest being 22", 24" and 25". It was non-stop action from walleyes and inbetween them was a nice mix of bullheads, catfish, whitos, bluegills and more! I had brought 48 crawlers, broke them in half and finished up what was 96 rebaits. After we ran out of crawlers, the Gulp minnows produced very similar action. It was no doubt, very hard to get off the water and head into Gander for the evening.

Photos soon.
