Brett, Kristen, Isabella and Geneva, and Blake Palmer's son Everett joined Bruce and Lola for the rest of their week at Casa Loma . Jon Balaski and I did the guiding. We were planning to meet for a noon shore lunch.
We fished with the August hot presentation bottom bouncers with slow death hooks threaded with a crawler. We found fish on a break line that had more rock than clay and worked our way along the perimeter from 36-41 feet.
The walleyes were really active, we caught plenty of very nice 16 - 16 1/2 inch walleyes and big ones that were over the slot and had to be let go. We had four fisher-people in the boat. We ran three lines taking turns on the walleyes. Brett used my Legend Extreme spinning rod with a 1 1/2 oz. Northland Bottom Bouncer and slow death hook. Isabella and Geneva cranked in one walleye after another for two hours and it was off to shore lunch.
We met up with Jon, Bruce, Lola, and grandson Everett for a Nelson Island lunch. We got aced out on biggest walleye, Jonnie Balaski's boat had the biggest of the morning a dandy 25 inch fish. After lunch the wind came up out of the south so we opted to fish the area south of Olson's reef on the west side of Brule Narrows.
We found numbers of fish south of the Fox Islands and Jon found them south of Olson's reef.
