8/19/18, Saginaw Bay, Au Gres, Fishing Report

[Trophy Specialist]

 

After taking some time off to go to the U.P. mid-week and a blow-day yesterday, I got back onto the water again today with nice conditions. We first ran to deep water where a friend of mine did well on Friday, but in two hours of fishing there we only had five walleyes in the box, so we picked up and ran to another spot that produced well for us on Tuesday. We only caught two walleye there in an hour of fishing, so we picked up lines once again and made another move to yet another spot. We had sporadic action there and I was actually contemplating yet another move when we trolled into a small, hot spot where we circled through a few times until my long time, repeat clients from Fenton, MI maxed out with their limits of walleyes in short order. We stayed with the same high-odds, spinner/crawler rigs all day with red/silver/glow being best today pulled at 1.3 to 1.7 mph with few fish lost today, especially when I was trolling faster. All and all it was a very fun day of fishing on the Bay.
