Huron 11/25

Yesterday was feast or famine for our boat. We were in the get ready lane by 6:45 and rollin out the river by 7:15. We got some intel from a buddy (thanks Heller High Water!!) that ran Sunday so we headed 4.6 miles ENE out of the mouth of the Huron River to 33-34 FOW.

For most of the day we were in 30-34 FOW. Water temp was 51.7. We put 6 boards out with 3 Bandits and 3 Flicker Minnows. We targeted a speed of 2.0 and set off on an Easterly heading. We had 3 hook-ups and 2 in the box before we had 4 lines in the water. The first coming on a Bandit on the first line in the water as I was reaching down to grab the board to put it on. We thought for sure we’d be upgrading by 9:00AM. That did NOT happen and we made our way to #10 by 10:00AM and we didn’t have #12 until noon!

We had a few unbuttons, more than usual actually, and at least 6 white bass. A couple of those FO! 11 walleye came on unassisted bandits and 1 (#12 actually) on a 30/30 P10. Leads were 40-100 with the shorter leads working early. At 10:00AM the wind picked up and the bite died. Not sure if that was because the closed their mouths or the presentation changed enough to stall the bite.

Wind forecast is gonna have us off the water for a stretch here. Good Luck!!
