It was a beautiful sunny and warm day.
Started fishing at Breezy Point at 8:22am at 8 feet....then 12 feet....then 16 feet.....bingo! Walleye hits right away. Good action for awhile. Made more holes and found the ledge......23 feet......fish were at 9-20 feet today.
Went to Selkirk for lunch and tried near St Peters Church area......DEEP......25 feet. First hole sent down a 1/4 oz propeller jig with salty.....waited to reach bottom.......COULDN'T FEEL BOTTOM
?.......pulled up a little line then....
WHAM....almost pulled the rod outa my hands......heart skipped a beat ........then line went slack.....
Pulled up to check the damage.......both the small bead holding prop and prop blade pulled all the way to the point of the hook
Clouds started piling up and heard on radio that Neepawa was getting heavy snow already......pulled up stakes at 4:30pm.....1 shy of limit
Ate almost all my perch.....it's off to Delta on the weekend
