5/29/05, Saginaw Bay, Au Gres, Fishing Report

We had a nice day on the Bay today. The winds were up in the morning and we ran to where we ended up yesterday, but it was a slow, bumpy ride to the fishing area. The action was steady all morning until the wind suddenly died completely and the bite died them too. We also had storms popping up on the radar in western Michigan, so we pulled lines and moved to another spot, close to port, where we had no luck at all. My three customers from Ohio enjoyed the day and took home 14 walleyes, three perch and one big catfish. They also threw back a bunch of walleyes too and told me they will come back to catch the ones they threw back next year. Now they are heading north to do some mushroom hunting for the rest of their short vacation. We took our fish on a variety of spinner/crawler rigs with no real preference shown by the fish. Speeds of 1.5 to 1.7 were best. We marked a lot of fish right out front of Au Gres, but a major bug hatch (mayflies and midges) there coupled with dead calm conditions resulted in no takers.
