Honestly the walleye have been pretty fickle for me so far this year. I decided with my ten year old son along we would be better served to target whites or crappies. We found some suspended fish in about 20 foot of water. It didn’t take long to pull up the first white on a jig and a minnow. My son isn’t the best at jigging yet (we are working on it) and he asked me if we could troll (he knows I let him reel them in). It didn’t take long to figure out 2 colors of lead and a rapala flat rap is what the whites really wanted. Whenever we crossed over a point we got ready, we had several doubles and one triple. We did catch some on flatlines trolling various cranks at the same depth but the shorties out the back definitely boated the most fish. Over 30 fish later my son should have had sore arms. He also caught his first walleye this year, a short but hey you have to start somewhere.

Sorry I don’t have any pictures on the water. I took some with my cell phone but I can’t seem to get them to upload to my computer.
