I along with Scott Van lierre guided the Pat Purlick group of repeat customers from Iowa to limits of walleye and a few bass. Weather was a big factor in this outing as the wind blew both days to 40 mph gusts so we fished on Lake Sharpe for the protection of the bluffs. I have always said wind is one of the biggest factors in catch's and this was no exception. We did get possession limits of walleye mostly in around 17 fow with either minnows or crawlers on bouncer rigs but had to earn them. A great bunch of guys and they seemed to have fun in spite of roaring NW winds. Both lake bites were slowed by weather and access to spots that were just unreachable in this howler. It looks like this northern front has moved thru so I expect better action all around this next week. Lots of boat traffic that was concentrated in areas that had some protection from the wind so many places were crowded. Over all the bite on both lakes is very good to spotty depending on the summer weather so cross your fingers when coming over and as always hope for those nice summer days. Remember to drain live wells/boats when leaving the ramp area's to comply with the new invasive species laws.
