WELCOME TO WALLEYE RETREAT

May 12, 2008: Happy Birthday Terri!!  The ice is now off the lake. Could not see any ice as far as you could see out there. Didn't get to fish today as was very windy and rained all day. A couple of groups are checking in this Thursday and Pete is doing a charter on Friday. Will do a report this weekend.

May 11, 2008: Sunny skies today and hardly any wind. Much nicer out today than yesterday. Pete, Terri & Matt went out at 3pm and fished just out of the Morris Point Gap in 5 ft of water. We anchored and were jigging using frozen shiners with orange working best for color. I put my hook down and caught a walleye within less than one minute and was a nice 16". Then Pete caught one and then another and then it was Matt's turn. We really had fun with every fish caught being a keeper in the 15-17" range. We fished just barely over an hour and had our limits of walleye. We didn't catch any saugers. Were around 20 boats out there while we fished and did see the nets going out deeper too so they were catching them out there. Still lots of ice on the big lake but plenty of room for everyone out there today. Still ice going right up to Pine Island but Four Mile Bay and Rainy River are all open. The water level has been coming up daily on the lake and is looking pretty good for depth. We could use another 6 inches or so.

May 10, 2008: Woke up to snow falling this morning and it snowed til around 2pm today then drizzled. Was pretty cold and damp out today. The fish were biting today but not super great. Paul and his group of 6 caught enough for dinner and came in by 11am as they were cold. They went back out for a few hours in the afternoon but the bite had slowed down and was pretty miserable weather for opening day.
