14 walleye, 4 smallmouth, 1 perch. This was saturday from 7:00am till 11:30am.

Most productive was the north end of the lake, with fish caught mostly from 7' to 14' of water. If you find weeds, and brush I think you'll find fish.

Bets of all thanks to Tube Dude for the fire tiger colored home made jigs (happened to win them at the perch-a-thon drawing at Yuba this past winter). Hooked with a crawler, they were the ticket.

We moved around and fished a mid-lake reef (one walleye and one smallmouth), bridge (one walleye), and Rabbit Gulch (nada), but the north end was the most productive.

I'm pretty confident that if we would have remained in Saleratus Wash the whole time we would have limited out, but it's always worth a little experimentation.

The walleyes were up to 19" and the largest smallmouth a 2 lber. Amazing that the perch haven't started up yet, but maybe as the waters warm they too will pick up.

Thanks for posting your report, sounds like a good haul of eyes. I sure hope the eyes haven't thinned out the perch to the point that there will be another crash on the eyes[:/].

[#0000ff]You woulda really done better if I had put some of my GOOD STUFF in that prize package. (joke). Most of those jigs work well for ice fishing as well as vertical jigging during open water months. But, it still takes a measure of skill to find the fish and then get them to "yawn"...and to get the hook in them. You done good.[/#0000ff]
