Fishing 5/30/14 with Bob and Rob Merrill and Dave...:)
by Capt Juls on 05/30/14Bob Merrill and his son, Rob, and his friend, Dave came down to do two days of trolling with me. Yesterday was a little rough and we decided it was best to just wait until better conditions today, to go fishing.
I picked them up at the Holiday Village Resort at 6am and we launched out of Mazurik's at 6:30.
After they got on the water this morning, they said they were happy that they didn't go yesterday, due to the 2-4 foots waves, because as Bob said, "We would have had a rough time just standing up".;)
There really isn't anything new in my report, since I headed right back to where I have been heading each morning this past week and a half (up at Ballast and Lucy's). Still the same program, and speeds.
They hooked up with approximately 22 walleye, but only got 14 in the boat. One of them was my fault, as I accidentally knocked it off with my spectacular netting skills...ugh. It was a nice one too. Rob didn't seem to mind, and said, "It was a freebie anyway, so that's kind of fair". (Freebie, because he caught it while he was letting line out before the Off Shore board was attached). :)
After we ran out of time, I took them and their fish over to Bay's Edge to have their fish cleaned. We waited for them, because it wasn't going to take them very long to finish them, and I drove them back to their hotel. We said our good byes and they said I should expect another call in about 10 days, because they wanted to come back and do it again. I can't ask for anything more than that. Woot! Woot!
Heading out tomorrow with Jim Bracken and his son, and friend at 9am. A little later start since he's driving from 3 hours away, and I told him he could pick the time that suits him, because it's his birthday present from his wife.
Stay tuned!
