Bottle Fish Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I was so happy to get up and see how cold it was till I looked outside and saw no wind. I'm heading to the lake as soon as possible to go fishing. Anyone else excited to get out again without the wind? I know I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have a wind but certainly this morning is a welcome change in terms of at least getting a break from it.Good luck! Taking the day "off" today but will be back out Monday AM.

frogtosser Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I am so sick of the 20mph + winds, it drives me nuts. I like a good 5 to 10 and thats about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trollin226 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Nothin wrong with a little 20mph walleye chop!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paceman Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't remember the last day the wind wasn't howling. It wouldn't be so bad if it was the same direction for a few days but it is switching constantly. Man this is a strange weather pattern this spring.....

JakeJ_Mn Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The wind and cold didn't keep me from my limit Saturday. Fished from shore near the Winnie Dam. Caught 9 walleye - kept 4. Lost a dozen jigs to snags. Had fresh fish for dinner and a snack later. Does it get better than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is supposed to blow 20-30 for the rest of the week It can settle down any time as far as I am concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Kuhn Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 i fished in the hurricane force winds on saturday morning. As did I. Boat control was nearly impossible even on a smaller lake. We ended up settling in a small bay where the winds were swirling, and while not calm, allowed boat control to be possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wish-I-Were-Fishn Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Forecast is for 40mph winds on Wednesday. Time to sell the boat and fish from shore. Lots cheaper and weather is less of a factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JewellOutdoors Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hoping that a weather change will bring about an increase in the number of leeches being trapped. We've had to fight to get enough to supply everyone. It was a slow trapping month so far - but should hopefully pick up as water temps rise.

Wish-I-Were-Fishn Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 If you haven't seen the weather underground site, you are missing out: just google wunderground to find it. Tons of info and great historical info as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
