Fishing Report: 6/22/18

Fishing Report – 6/22/18:  I arrived at the marina only to discover that the gusty NE wind from yesterday continued to blow.  We headed out with Justin and crew to decide if the lake was fishable or if it would be a scratch.  Out on the lake we found sloppy 2-3’ waves.  Heading toward yesterday’s spot all we found was ice water.  On a tip from Capt Ken of Blacktop Charters, we turned the boat and headed for warmer water.  Once we found more suitable temps, our bite turned into a steady pick but slowed as the NE wind continued to drop the water temp.  We managed to end the day boxing their 24 Walleye limit, along with 0/3 on Steelhead and boxing a bonus Brown Trout.  It was a brutal day on the lake; Sloppy chop, rain, cold temps and a couple cases of the lake Erie Flu.  The guys gutted it out to get their fish.  The ironman award goes to Mike who despite a bad case of the Lake Erie Flu hung in there until we filled the box.  Thanks guys, good work!
