Matt, the wildfire smoke came in and there was a huge difference in fish activity which seemed to be pretty steady. We had activity all day.
That's pretty interesting, Todd. Probably exemplifies the difference between areas of the lake that I was refering to. That was Tuesday and we stuck to a certain area of the lake where we hardly moved squat. Got a 41" mid-morning, before the heavier smoke/overcast moved in. Moved a jumbo in the afternoon, but it was late and low. A handful of other follows, but overall it was one of our slowest days. |

Location: Hayward, WI | Got back from my first LOTW trip. We put 16 in the boat with a 50 and 48. Got 10 pike up to 40 also. Buckrail bite was good to start with but things slowed and cranks got more action as the week went on. Moved at least 20 fish per day and caught 3/4 of our fish at boat side.
Hooked a fish one evening fishing some big rocks. Fish took off and was peeling drag like nothing I have felt before and then nothing. Figured it rubbed my line on a rock and frayed it. Next AM we had a HUGE fish follow in with my Giant Shallow Invader stuck in its back. Sure wish we could of got it to bite... |

| Yup, trout water is the most beautiful water in the shield, and its home to the biggest muskies. |
