Sounds like you never tried to find any toothy walleyes. They have got to show them selves soon.
Now those ghostly whipers, did you see any birdy action? Did you see schools of those elusive shad. Got to be big two inches by now..
I'm sure there are some fat predators just waiting to charge up from the depts like a great white after a tuber.

Because of my diminished battery situation on this trip I did not do any widespread lure dragging for ABC...anything but cats.  On other recent trips, however, I have gone through crawler harnesses, crankbaits and other enticements without anything to show for it.

There were a few shadlets slurping up the surface scum of dying midges but no evidence of larger fish working them from below.  And in the marina there were both shad and spot-tailed shiners boiling on said midges.  Did see a few terns divebombing the occasional dumb one that stayed too close to the surface long enough to be spotted.  And there were several areas where small balls of bait showed up on sonar.


My fishing log records from the past show that once the surface temps drop into the 65 to 70 degree range again that we can expect to get more love from W&W.
