Launched at Prinyers around 6:50am and started heading west down the gut for a bit then along the north breakline to the lighthouse.
Started with Gold DHJ-14, Purpledescent JDHJ12, Purpledescent Tail dancer and Bandit Deep Walleye in wonderbread - all out with various leads to 2oz snap weights. 1.6 - 1.8mph.
First Fish on at 9:15ish 115fow on gold DHJ-14. Father-in-law reeled in a 6lb 8oz.

Switched the other two lines to gold DHJ and purple JDHJ as well and headed back east with the wind. No takers. Looped back into the wind and at 11:30 father-in-law reeled in his PB and the biggest girl of the day coming in at 10lb 11oz on purple JDHJ12.

4/4 on the day. Perhaps the fish gods knew I had a birthday recently and were feeling relatively generous.
Great to be out there with temps above the freezing mark, for this time of year!
