6/6/13, Saginaw Bay, Au Gres, Fishing Report

[Trophy Specialist]

We had some rough water and tough fishing conditions on today's charter, but my customers really wanting to fish, so we gave it a try and they managed to catch their limits of nice walleyes. We had three to five foot waves all day, so the area we had been fishing was not productive. We did hit a spot though on the way in yesterday close to port and picked up a couple quick fish there at the tail end of that trip. As it turns out, that spot still held fish today too, which is where we caught most of our fish. We had to sort though some undersized fish today, but there were also some bigger fish mixed in with the small fish too, Our biggest walleye today was 26 inches. Because we were fishing in such tough conditions, I ran four crawler harnesses, two off the boards and two flat lines. I also ran four Hot N' tots off the middle and outside boards too. We took more fish off the crawlers, but the Tots did produce an equal number of keeper sized fish. The winds are predicted to die down some for tomorrow, so we should have a much better day then.
