Wind and Storms

Show Date: June 1, 2014

Locations: Door County & Washington County, Wisconsin

Guide: Wacky Walleye Guide Service [920-743-5731 | wackywalleye.com]

Accommodations: Sand Bay Beach Resort [SandBayBeach.com | (920) 743-5731

This week took us on a bit of a rollercoaster. 

First we headed to Sand Bay Beach Resort to plan our fishing trip with Capt. Dale Stroschein, and due to intense storms, and very high winds; our trip was cut short.  We didn’t get a good chance at any of the spots that usually hold fish, so we’re going to get back up that way in the near future. 

The next day we headed to a lake closer to home in Washington County, and the weather was much improved, but the big storms that had just blown through seemed to have slowed the bit considerably, so we had to weed through a bunch of small fish. 

Not every day on the water is going to be a banner fishing day, but we’re always making memories irregardless.

This week we’re back in Vilas County with guide Rob Manthei, and a fellow guide Will Buhler. We’re going to learn about how to find and target walleyes as they transition into their summer patterns. The best place to look is along weed edges, and using the Humminbird Mega Live is a great way to find schools of fish to throw a lure at.

Madison Chain Bluegills

Guide: Justin Neu [920-382-7890]

It’s been a while since we’ve been to the Madison Chain, and guide Justin Neu is an expert bluegill guide. We have a warm and humid day, and the weeds are where the fish go to hide and get some shade.  We’re using a drop-shot rig using a redworm, and catch fish at will for as long as we want to.
