Mother Nature Sucks
May 25, 2025
Orion was finishing off his week of business and would be flying back to Atlanta after we were done. Little did he know that it would probably be one, if not the best day of fishing he had ever experienced!
With water temps barely above 50 degrees, I decided to begin a little deeper and almost instantly we were into fish. Pike after pike came aboard but the walleye didn’t seem to want to bite. After boating close to a dozen, I decided to venture shallower to see if they were there. Unfortunately, the pike were shallow as well and we continued to rack up the numbers.
Our morning had only seen northerns with zero signs of the walleye. This all changed however and good numbers of them soon came aboard. A mix of high-end keepers and big overs were landed by Orion and he was having a blast. We trolled the entire day and had action for the most part. The weather even cooperated better than I expected and little to no rain fell upon us. I did however raise the roof earlier in the day when the first shower arrived and left it up all day.
Today was a great, post spawn bite day and plenty of fish were landed. Orion left with a sense of satisfaction and sore arms from all the fish he had caught. Hopefully the next time he has to come here for a business trip, he’ll join me again for another banner day of fishing. Looking forward to our next adventure!!
