My brother and I fished the West side on Friday and Saturday nights with good success. Our best success was on the rocks in 8-9 FOW trolling # 12 Husky Jerks at around 1.6 to 1.7 mph with some slow rod sweeps mixed in. Best colors were black/gold amd tennessee shad. We also caught some walleyes in 13-14 FOW outside the weedline trolling shad shaped crank baits. Lots of fish in the 20-23 inch range with about 6-7 24 inch or better fish mixed in each night. Our biggest walleye was 27 inches. We caught 3-4 skinny fish but most were fat and healthy. We had 18 walleyes on Friday night and 22 walleyes on Saturday. Good luck to anyone heading up as the fish we caught were very aggressive despite the colder temps!
