Fishing Aboard the Pirate Clipper 8/30/15
by Capt Juls on 08/31/15
We had a good day of fishing aboard the "Pirate Clipper" yesterday... which is 'Eye-Catcher Charters 37' TollyCraft.
The 6 man group ended the trip with a 5 man limit (plus 1),...which is great, because after the walleye bite these past 10 days, we weren't expecting to catch very many, and would have been happy with 6-10 walleye and a mess of perch.
It started out as a combo trip, because if the walleye weren't going to be cooperative, we would have switched over to Perch. But, the Walleye Gods were happy yesterday, thankfully, and let us catch a bunch!
We ran spoons on one side...those took most of the smaller fish...and bandits on the other side, behind 2 oz inline weights...took all the bigger fish. The morning bandits were 75-80 back and afternoon bandits were 120-140 back. The morning spoons were 55-60 back and afternoon was 75-100 back ...speed was 1.7kts
The customers appeared to have had a great time, and were all smiles when I saw them, as they were leaving, at Anchor's Away Marina, after the trip.
If you're searching for a great captain for a larger group than I can take (wink wink)....give Capt Eric Litton a call. For more information and rates, you can visit his website here: http://eye-catchercharters.com/index.htm
You won't be disappointed.
I may have a walleye trip tomorrow. I am just waiting on confirmation, or not, so I must get out and clean my boat now. Perch fishing makes a mess, and if you know me, you know how anal I am about keeping my Ranger clean. ;)
Otherwise, I am not booked until next weekend, with more perch and walleye trips, so....
Stay tuned....
