pike- 1st 31.5", 2nd 29.5", 3rd 28.5".
walleye- 1st 20.25", 2nd 18", 3rd 18", 4th 17"
perch- 1st 13", 2nd 10.75" 3rd8 8" 4th 6.25"

I didnt catch **** this derby, my buddy got two keeper eyes just long enough to keep, we fished alder bay and there were a few people but not as many as usual, there wasn't a single shanty in the perch hole. the weather was great and the beer tasted good!

The perch hole seems to be slowing down the last couple years. My usual spots for perch have not produced well at all the last two seasons. Nice to hear there are still a few fish left in there.

6 of us fished sat, and then sun till 12. We ended up with 6 walleyes (one at 15.5" all others under 15"), 3 pike (2 just over 25"), and 2 perch (one was in second place still when we left and the other one we should have registered was 9"). Our team was still in first when I left, do not know if we ended up there or not. Had two bite offs and about a half dozen other bites. On the other hand the weather was great!

I really hope this lake can make a come back as a fishery, all the sub legal walleye atleast to me indicate that they are spawning naturally in there. Hopefully stocking efforts can bring up the number of legal fish, I grew up fishing a lake real similiar to INDI and I have a lot of good memories of it, its what attracted me to the lake to begin with but the slow fishing the last couple years has kept me away.

I don't know from what Woody38's saying the 2am bite is non-existant, I know I've had a few cougers on but never got to take home a keeper. :tipup:
