Was pleasantly surprised to meet Anglinarcher in his boat.  Our first meetup after a lot of cyber chatter.  Also not sure how he did since he headed out and covered a lot of water to the west of where I fished mostly.

Wanted to try a new rig today...a "high-low" rig...using 3 way swivels to fish two separate crawler harnesses at different levels above the bottom.  Attaching a writeup and one pic to explain it a bit.  The fish approved.  Hooked 4 walleye, landed 3, kept 2.  One posed briefly for a picture and then dove off my plastic apron back into the lake.  Caught 2 walleye on the top rig and 2 on the bottom. 





Also caught about 10 cats...some on the crawler rigs and some on minnows on whirly fligs.  All fun and all released on today's trip.



Dragged the crawler rigs at about .8 mph average.  Tried pulling some cranks at 2 mph for a while but got no love.  Went back to BB  but the fish pretty much quit playing a little after 11.  Dang.  I lived 20 years in Arizona and should be heat tolerant.  But even 90 seems hot in Utah.

My son and i launched the boat at the North Marina Weds morning, we fished from 7 to 11 and landed a couple doz. walleye during that time frame we kept our limit that ran from 17 to 20 inches. All caught trolling.
