Fished Fox Lake yesterday. Mayfly hatch going on so fish were active. caught three 13 inch walleyes and one 12 incher (Figures, all undersized) crappies, bluegill, white bass and drum. All but the walleyes were big fish. Caught all in gravel bottom areas, no fish in mud bottom areas I found. All caught in under four feet of water. Probaly 50 fish in all, good day. Half crawler on slow death.
Cloudy 78°
Water: 80°
Docks
Went on scouting mission to some lakes have not been on in awhile. Two places I found fish were the ends of docks that are in 6ft of water or more and if you’re lucky enough to come across a fish crib or brush pile. No great size to the pan fish but we caught Crappie, Gills, White bass and perch on minnows and one smallie And the jet skis are out of control ??

OUT SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. SATURDAY WAS GOOD ACTION BUT NO WALLEYES. HAD FUN CHASING WHITE BASS THAT WERE BUSTING MINNOWS ON THE SURFACE FOR A WHILE. CASTED AROUND THEM FOR AROUND 90 MINUTES AND CAUGHT A BUNCH OF THEM. SUNDAY WAS SLOW AS HECK. ONLY CAUGHT A FEW FISH WITH A FRIEND, NO WALLEYES. STAYED ON THE NORTH LAKES BOTH DAYS. GOTTA LOVE IT WHEN THE JET SKIERS COME WITHIN 25' OF YOUR BOAT FULL THROTTLE AND WAVE. LOTS OF FOOLS OUT THERE WHO SHOULD BE TICKETED DOING THAT.

WAS OUT SUNDAY FOR ABOUT 6 HOURS. WALLEYES WE CAUGHT WERE ALL SHALLOW WATER. FRIEND GOT THREE LEGALS AND MINE WERE ALL SHORT OR OVER THE SLOT. CRAWLERS/JIG WERE THE TICKET FOR US. NOT A LOT OF GOATS WHICH WAS SHOCKING AS LAST TIME IT WAS NON STOP GOAT ACTION. NICE DAY WEATHER WISE TO BE OUT. WATER WAS 5 DEGREES WARMER THAN SATURDAY IN WHICH I TOOK MY DAUGHTER AND FRIENDS OUT FOR A BOAT RIDE.
