I did....

nothing much to report, I was over on Balsam on Sat and really think that might have been some of the worst wind I have ever been out on figure that it was blowing 30 and I go 45 so when I was heading into the wind it was around 70mps winds plus? At least I don't need to shop vac the boat! I have a decent trolling run for balsam that normally kicks out at least two keeper walters and I didn't get a hit, not even a snake.

Bass and Walleyes were really slow but I managed 20 decent crappies out of Deer, but even that wasn't very much fun. Next week will be better as it can't get worse.

Did pretty well on eyes in the Minong Flowage with a fat 27" er being the best.

Water temps were pretty cold yet at 44 degs saturday morning and topping out at 46 deg sunday.

I don't miss many Wisconsin openers because i live about 5 minutes from the Croix, but i missed last week because of my sons birthday party.
