Title: End of the first quarter
Post by: WALLEYEGUY on April 05, 2016, 06:12:03 AM: So far this year my boat has accounted for WALLEYE 272 BURBOUT 19 Crappie 635 Perch 665 Smallmouth 21 Others 7 Total 1619

Lots of luck and timing is everything, biggest lesson this year so far depth matters a lot.

Post by: WALLEYEGUY on April 06, 2016, 08:39:38 AM: Just got lucky on the timing on the perch and crappie this winter and found them stacked up on the edge of the river on the snake in Idaho, caught them all in 5 days of vacation, I do fish every weekend and will be taking 2 weeks off in May for walleyes. I keep a spread sheet of all my trip to identify patterns and depths. I look back and see what was the best baits and location ect. Has helped a lot because as I am chasing the best bite patterns have developed that keep me on fish.
