Another good day at Lincoln. No ice in the launch channel at 8:30, water temp was 42 and warmed to 45 by noon. Fished with Catrat today and we had a good time. The fish count did not increase – only two again – but the size did. Got one well-fed 27 ½ incher that weighed just shy of ten pounds, good enough to enter in the contest.
Met Ben at the launch, always good to gab with him. We talked to him about 10-ish and he had not caught a fish yet but I’m sure he will be posting up a catch report today sometime. Mike (MSM1970) swung by in his flashy Bayliner long enough to say hello before he shot off to his walleye hole at the island. He has those walleyes figured out.
Slow fishing... marked lots of fish on the finder but could not force feed them. Tried cut white bass, carp minnows, and carp slabs – no interest.
It will only get better.
