    Just got back after 4 days of fishing and had a blast!

    The fish had slowed down with the cold front that came through but are starting to pick up again.

    One of our groups ended up with 7 walleyes all in the keeper range after throwing back lots of bigger ones and also took home 2 14″ crappies and 2 10″ perch.

    Another group of 4 took home 7 eyes and would have had limits except they threw back a 14″ thinking they would catch lots more. Caught lots more they did, just not another one under 17″

    The third house had 2 people and caught 8 eyes but most were too big or too small.

    Russ and I caught 6 about 18″, I got a 22″ and we ended up with 2 keepers and 2 nice perch at 10 1/2″. One of the eyes was so close to the slot we measured it 3 times – twice came up with 16 7/8″ and once with 17 1/16″ so back down the hole it went.

    It’s really hard to find time to fish with Russ because he is always running around visiting or banking the houses or re-drilling holes or whatever – he just can’t sit still.

    This morning one of our houses with 4 people caught 6 walleyes before 9:30 but only one keeper, most were right around 18″. I’m sure that number has changed by now.

    Everyone was very happy with the accomodations and service and that makes us feel good.
    I can’t wait until I can go back and try my luck again!
