Walleye Fishing Very Good for The Zink's

[Captain Tom Straus]

Today we had the pleasure of fishing with 3 generations of the Fred Zink family. The Zink's are notorius for developing the finest game calls and decoys for the avid hunters worldwide. We headed out to the nothwest corner of Kelleys Island in hopes of catching big fall walleyes. We set our lines back 25-35 on our shallow side and 90-120 feet back using all reefrunner deep divers in grey ghost, blue moon eye, and perch naked. It took a while for the fish to go but when they started we pulled some nice walleyes in the 4-9 pound range and ended up catching 15. With lots of jokes and spending the day with Gunner and the The Zink's we had another great day with lots of laughs and very good walleye fishing.
