Was out on the big lake this past Saturday and Sunday... Started off Saturady by perch fishing to find that it was VERY slow and there was no size to the perch we were getting, so I decided to go for walleyes. We got a few on the reefs by Kalbus' but nothing big. All fish were 12-16 (kept 2 for eating). Went in to eat dinner and went out to the mud by myself for the evening to find a nice school of fish around the long point area, so I set up there with crawler harnesses. I started getting fish right away 50ft behind the board, so I put all my lines there and had my 3 fish limit (since I took 2 on the reefs no time. All fish were 15+ with the biggest being 20.5 Also threw back 6 small ones. On Sunday I didnt get out on the lake until 3:30 , so I took my dad to that same spot in the mud to find the same thing there, but a little slower than Saturday. We kept 4 fish 15.5-22 and threw back about 8 little ones. We also got a 5lb catfish that really had me fooled esp since he hit the same time as the 22 incher that I netted one handed for my dad while i was fighting my fish. The fish in the mud seem to want a very slow presentation, so we have been using the bow mount to barley keep those blades spinning. Hatchet blades have been working best for us. Some people think that the mud has slowed down.... it hasnt. You just have to find a good school of fish. If anyone has any questions, email me. Good luck, Brett
