    Hit the river after work for a couple hours, got 3 walleye and a handful of SMB. Here are the 2 better eyes.

    I ordered a submersible dock light today, selling point was the remote to shut if off when the dock bouncers come to cast.

    Got my boat back from the shop today. Now it's time to get the new motor broke in. The new smart craft monitor that I added is going to be nice.

    Ive been so busy havent had much time to do squat. I did rewire my whole boat and took her out on maiden voyage. Ran awesome. Only issue i had was my 9” screen at the console lags quite a bit when im running the 10 and 12” on the deck. Not a big deal as i wont be using them all at once anyway. Oh yea and i did catch a nice one! IMG_7449.jpeg IMG_7450.jpeg IMG_3599.jpeg IMG_3600.jpeg IMG_7410.jpeg IMG_7408.jpeg

    Dock light is really cool, and people say there are no walleyes in the lake.

    Sota.. I'd be casting to those eyes after the light has a chance to draw in bait fish. Ever try a 10 inch red worm for them?

    26 in 2.5 hours, glad I listened when my son said we should go fishing this morning.

    Hit the river with my BIL this am. Caught a handful of cats, smb and walleye. This eye went 7.71lb and just under 29” and my best one in the river.

    Was down at the dock last night had to call the wife down to work the jig. I was using a wacky worm and the big sunfish would follow the worm up by the light but the worm is too big for them, wife drops her jig by the worm boom. We do catch and release everything so it isn't cheating.
