Slayed the walleye in the Spokane arm!!!!
« on: February 27, 2010, 08:45:42 PM »
Well my dad was kind enough to let me tag along with him and a friend today to go out walleye fishing on the Spokane arm...it started out pretty slow with only 2 fish in the first 2 hours at the spot I got fish at last week, so we looked around a bunch of different spots until we finally found some fish....the bite was extremely light!!!....very slight...we pretty much were dragging jigs tipped with worms on the bottom...we figured out that if we trolled slowly up stream we got no bites but down stream we could get bites...it was really weird that they were so finicky...we fished from about 9:30 AM till we got or limit around  4:00 PM ish.... and then tried for some small mouth with no luck... i did get one small mouth that was about 14 inches long in about 35 feet of water by some under water weeds....but that was the only one...all in all it was a fantastic day, with amazingly great weather and little to no wind most of the day...   oh, most fish were caught in 50 feet of water on Gulp minnows...in minnow color and in the very popular chartruse....

Nice!  

I've only gotten one keeper walleye in WA.  Nicely, it was a 32" 10 pounder at Potholes lake.  

They are definitely a tasty fish.

Well done!  So that smallie was on the bottom in 35 feet of water?  I'm fishing a tourney next month on Roosevelt.  I'm hoping the bass are more suspended by then.  What was the water temp?
