fall bite and weather...?

[Big Julie]

So the question up for discussion is...

What is it going to take weatherwise to get the fish going?

It sure doesn't help for the wind to change every other day.

The water temp is around 62. The forcast is for fairly 'normal' fall temps.

Speculations anyone?

I'm not sure how water temps are sitting right now, but hopefully things get cranking for next weekend (after duck opener) as I believe I may be out on the water for 4 days.

Was on Ida yesterday. It was still 61.5.

I got one walleye on a fast break in 30 feet with a 'tail.

Didn't stick around as long as I planned with the wind.

The wind seems to be 25 everyday switching from nw to se every other day.

Not too much drastic temperature cooling in the forecast.

Wouldn't mind trying Miltona, but the winds are too much for my boat.

We fished Miltona last weekend. We caught a lot of walleyes but they were tiny little things. Some of the smallest I've ever caught. We did manage a couple 17's and one 19.5. Caught fish from 5 foot to 40 foot deep. Most on minnows and jigs. a couple on raps. Can't wait to get out again next weekend. hopefully find some bigger fish.
