DanTheMan Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 My Holidays started out on June 1 and headed up to my annual Spring Walleye hunt on Round Lake in KL. Meet up with Rocky on Sunday morning at 7 am at his cottage and proceeded straight out to our fishing grounds. Well, it didn’t long for our spot to produce. We did manage a few quality fish, but not the big splash that where usually spoil too. I only manage a couple of fish that day and Rocky kick my butt again(lol) The next morning , headed back to our spot again and pretty much same results .Some very decent Fish, but no trophy’s yet. I did manage to get the biggest one of the day and my PB 6LB 25 inches long Walleye. The next couple of days where pretty much the same. We caught some more decent eyes, and still manage to get some great fishing done and had Fantastic weather. I consider this trip of the BEST weather trip we had there. We had great weather the whole 5 days we where there. I couldn’t have asked for better. Oh, did I forget to mention the black flies yet?? Well, they where INSANE!!! Out of all the years I been going, this had to be the WORSE season yet. They just would never give us a break. I think we had 1 day break from them when we had 30 mph winds (lol) but, that’s the way it goes, you want fish, you handle the black flies!!!(lol) On day 5, I decided to come home and take 1 days rest from the bugs and all and I also, Wanted to clean up and shower up. I talk it over with the wife and we decided to head back for the weekend to finish up my weeks holiday. So on the weekend, we pack up and headed up for a second chance to get “Bubba” And Once again, fantastic weather and MORE black flies this time. Not sure why they where worse, But I guess there mast producing over there (lol). Well, It didn’t long for us to catch fish again. Same spot and same results. Lots of 3’s and 4 lbs . It seems that was average size, and don’t get me wrong, it’s all GOOD in my books. And sure enough, the wife out fish me this time. (lol) She actually got her PB also on this trip. She landed a beauty 7lb (26 inches long) walleye. Well, that’s pretty much the basics of my report, I’m sure there’s more little details, but I don’t want to bored you guys with it. Its was a FANTASTIC 1st weeks vacation, and something I wont forget and cant wait till next year to do it again!!! Thanks again to my buddy Rocky for the GREAT trip and hospitality and thanks to my FAVORITE fishing partner in the world, my WIFE for great trip and fun time!!! Till the next hunt!!!! Dan Here’s a bunch of photo’s for you guys to enjoy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
