Wind was ferocious!!! We fished the north shore between the islands and the bank and managed to catch only one Walleye. We saw one guy who said he caught three but other than that not much going on.

I am a little worried about Sprague Lake. The water temperatures are starting at 54 deg. (1 foot depth) and reaching into the high 50's to low 60's. This should have the Walleye on a serious bite. ...
