Great Shape

Great Shape

The fish are starting to bite a little better. They’re in great shape. Yesterday we caught them back in the bays at 8 1/2 feet and today they were on the points in 12 to 21 feet.

Big Hatch and Big Fish

Big Hatch and Big Fish

Although the bite on Lake Oahe has been a little tough, we managed to catch and release this nice walleye this morning. It came out of Deep Creek in 17  FOW.  My 37 years of guiding, I have never seen a baitfish hatch as large as this. Smelt, herring, and other species are seen everywhere in the system.  Many have left the shoreline and are suspended in balls every 20 yards 10 to 40 feet of water.

Fun was had by all.

Looks like there’ll be some decent weather for Memorial Day weekend. If that holds up, there should be quite a few fish brought in.  Right now the fish are in 8‘ 20‘ 30 feet etc. although the weather was lousy the last 10 days we’ve managed to reschedule some and do what we could. Here’s a couple pics of our catch.  Released the large one, of course. Fun was had by all.
