Coolness Continues

2004-08-23

Another cool week weather wise. Highs have been in the 50-60s with lows in the 30-40s. Very unusual for this time of year. The Vana's boated two muskie this past week, a 40 and a 44. David caught the bigger one, his personal best. Mike caught a 38 inch northern as well.

Smallmouth action has been fairly consistent off rockpiles. Matt Koonce caught a 21" smallie and several other nice fish were released during the week. Some were taken on leeches others on crankbaits.

The walleye action continues right before dark. A new trolling pattern seems to be developing on the flats after 3:00 pm. Maybe some welcome normalcy. We've seen this pattern in years past develop. It looks like the walleye have totally skipped the summer patterns of years past because of the lack of warmer water temperatures. With water temps staying close to the low 60s in Big Bay and sometimes into the 50's in the shallow bays, fall has come early. Or should I say the summer never arrived.

May your pole always be bent! Dave
