Made it down to pool 2 this weekend and fish were in a good mood. Water temp was up to 58, and the walleyes were smacking nightcrawlers and minnows with the bigger fish coming on crawlers. Got a few nice ones biggest being 23″ with countless shorter fish. To bad by the time my buddy made it with his boat the bite slowed, but we managed a few more fish. Also while fishing from shore a boat comes up and casts right over my line while im jiggin and then asks “do you have a line out”. I answered him as calmly as possible. Caught a few more fish in front of them, they re-tied on a couple other stupid lures and finally left. This happens to me all the time open water or ice fishing, it wouldn’t be so bad if they were friendly about it but I’ve noticed with these spot poachers they don’t even like to make eye contact. Maybe they’ve lost their pride I don’t know.
