Day Two Fishing with Bob and Bruce...10/18/2024
by Capt Juls on 10/18/24Long story short, because it's been a really long day, and I have to get to bed soon.
We started out near the same spot we fished yesterday, but only had 18 perch in 2 1/2 hours. It started out slow yesterday, too, but this felt different, so I made the decision to move.
We left and went up around the east side of Kelly's to the NE buoy on the shoal, and found no marks that looked "Perchy", so I kept going and headed towards Middle Island and Gull Island Shoal. However, as I passed over 44' of water between the two points, the Helix lit up with marks that looked like what we were looking for, so we stopped to check it out.
It turned out to be a very good spot, and we managed to put another 57 in the cooler, in 3 hours, for a total of 75 perch. Bob and his brother Bruce were very happy with today's trip....especially, when we found a spot where there wasn't another boat in sight (other than an occasional boat, trolling for walleye, off in the distance). :)
The water temp today was 58 degrees on the east side of the lighthouse, but I forgot to look when we were in the other two spots.
Since I'm fishing for walleye the next two days...I'll give up the spot. It's 1.4 miles east of middle and a 1/2 mile south of the Canadian line, in 44' of water. Good luck if you get up there. There's a bunch up there, but the full moon has many of them pretty moody. :)
Tomorrow and Sunday, I have walleye trips scheduled.
Stay tuned...
