Got to lake at about 5 PM. Calm as could be. Went west and tried in middle of lake (in front of vans) for suspenders. Didn’t do anything and marked very few fish so went to snow fence area and lindy rigged and threw jigs toward shore–Notta. Was waiting for wipers to start as sun went down but never really got going. I did catch a couple right at dark.
Went out early next AM and hit the southeast points. ALewives galore. Caught some nice white bass and a couple wipers 6-7lbrs. Sun rose and bite died so went to north side by snow fence and trolled. Immediatly caught a 4lb walleye 17 ft down in 25 ft. of water but couldn’t get anything else going. Saw very few fish boated. Ran back west and tried suspenders-only one other boat out there and they caught a 7-8?? lbr as I pulled up. Same as day before-no fish. After that-hit a couple other spots trolling cranks but did nothing so headed home. Creel census guy checked me as I came out. He said only saw 6 or 7 wallys that day.
Definitely fish early AM and late PM-find the alewives and you will catch wipers/whites and maybe a walleye. Talked to guys that trolled dam for 6 hrs sat nite and caught 3 wallys-two 8lbs, 1-5lb.
