Found them?
Dave and I met up with Steve and Frank. The boat launch was full so we had to go park our trucks and trailers at Frank's house while we went fishing. There were boats everywhere while we made our way out onto Green Bay. The walleye run must be on.
The bay was calm and we headed out, Steve and Frank to one of the places we fished last year. Bruce and I decided to try near some humps that we saw last week. It didn't take long and Steve and Frank both has fish, Dave and I were still searching. We tried on top of some humps in 60 feet but no luck. We ended up on the side of a hump that was so steep our fish finder didn't work right. Pretty soon I finally caught one, then Dave caught one. Steve and Frank moved over and between the two boats we ended up with 14 nice fish. Maybe we found them? Maybe not.

Shakedown Cruise
I got up and checked the camera that looks at Green Bay, the bay was flat calm. We have been waiting for a day like this so I called Dave and said, "Let's go fishing". He said, "how soon". I said, "right now". That started our fishing trip.
It was a shakedown cruise so we expected some problems. One tire on the trailer has been giving me trouble and sure enough it was low on air. We put air in it and we're good to go. The boat launch was full when we got to the bay. Dave went to get the parking permit by using his credit card. The card worked but the machine was out of paper so he didn't get the permit to put on your dash. Of course we had a ticket when we came in from the lake.
The motors started and the lake was calm. We headed out to our fishing spot and it wasn't long and a whitefish came aboard. Then Dave caught one. We had a couple more bites and lost a couple of fish but I was restless to try a couple more spots. Well, we left fish to find fish, bad plan. A couple more spots were tried with no luck. We quit fishing at 2:30 with just the two fish in the box. Remember, DON'T LEAVE FISH TO FIND FISH!
Calm seas for our first trip.
Dave, ever hopeful and looking for a bite.
