First time out fishing in awhile this weekend.

Saturday

I hit Upper Rideau Lake with a buddy looking for walleye. We fished from 6am to 11:30am. We trolling...jigged...drifted....but not a walleye to be found.

On one shoal we were fishing we did find some decent panfish, mainly Pumpkinseeds. Not walleye but kept a few, made for a nice dinner. The largest ones were almonst 10" long.



Sunday

Hit Mississippi Lake with another buddy today in search of walleye again. Fished from about 8 am to 4pm. We trolled...jigged....drifted....casted...but no walleye.

We did get 1 smallie, about 6 small pike, a couple perch and 14 of these.


The largest 4 were over 13" and made a great dinner.

Hopefully better luck with the walleye next time.

guess I dont feel toooooooo bad not getting out yet for the EYE bite

looks like a nice feed

Nice haul of crappie for sure.

Was out on the Miss today from 2-7PM and tried everything except jigging but couldn't get the eyes to cooperate. Marked lots in the 14-18ft range and lots were hugging the bottom so me thinks they were eyes.

Moved in for some crap-eyes but could not locate any. Manged gills and seeds; about 40 or so before my 7yr old boy gave in and asked to go home.

No meals today but he had a blast so much that his wrist was sore from reeling.

Too bad plan A didn't work out.

Looks like you have some good eating there with plan B.

Thanks for the report and pics.

Couple good feeds there Jim. Good stuff.

That's is good for a few tasty feeds. Sometimes I'd rather have a feed of those than a feed of walleyes.

Thanks guys.

Definitely a couple good feeds, just as good as walleye, just more cleaning

Some great looking dinner!

I guess you dont use secret sauce to catch walleye
