Sauger/Walleye fishing on the Ottawa!

[tip-uptwo]

Fished Petrie again today hoping to get into a few walleye...I got down there around 10:30am, set-up and got into a few small fish immediatly..Not too long after Wallyboss strolled in on his 4wheeler and set up base over the shoal..The bite was really slow today. I managed 6 walleye/sauger and kept a few sauger around the pound, pound and a half range for a light snack   ...Dan also caught a couple of walleye around the same size..He had a few on the stinger, don't know how he made out after I took off though..I left at 4:30 so I can get an early start tomorrow  

The set-lines and tip-ups accounted for most of the walleye today although moving around from hole to hole looking for active fish worked well too..I didn't get to do much of that today as the wind was howling.

Couple of small sauger..


Beautiful day    Black fog moved in as I was about to leave..Strange

I have been lucky this year  Last year we had to weed out the walleye because there were ling everywhere...I have yet to have one strike my bait so far, although I have heard reports of people getting them..
