    I’m planning to be out from about 9-4 tomorrow. Likely launching out of Nitti’s Hunters Point. Send me a message if you want to share info while on the water. Happy fishing!

    Had a great day on the water. There were lots of boats out and it looked like everyone was catching fish. I picked up about 20 walleye today. All came in 15 FOW. Leeches worked best early, then minnows were best in the afternoon.

    I saw 51 degrees on Friday on the NE side. Had some good fishing (50+ fish days) with the family on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Lindy, Bobber, jig, all took fish in 10-18 FOW. Used leeches, fat heads and paddle tail plastics. No big fish though.

    I had 47-48 degrees yesterday. I would love to be back out there today, but the weather doesn’t seem too inviting.

    @Joe-winter great pics! Looms like a great time on the water!

    Good job. The bigger fish are likely in deeper water already. People are already fishing the flats and catching mid 20 inch range fish with regularity.

    We (2 kids and I)were up Friday night from 7-10 and put close to 30 in the boat. The first hour we had 13. Saturday we did well starting at 9 and fished until 4. Was not as furious as Friday night but still put close to another 30 in the boat.

    We fished jigs/minnow in 8-10 feet of water. Never went more than 12 feet of water.
