4-2-07 Lincoln Area Walleye Report

Pete and I made it out to one of the Lincoln area lakes and had a little luck before the cold front on Monday. I’m happy to report that the majority of walleyes have moved off the spawning areas and are hungry. We focused on a couple of different breaks on the main lake. The fish we caught were on the top of the breaks and just hammered our live bait rigs. We were running minnows as we forgot to bring any crawlers. I’m guessing the crawler bite should be picking up over the next couple of weeks. I’m hoping we can buy leaches soon.
Here’s a picture of a couple of keepers we ended up with for the evening.

Thanks Ben and I am with you on the leach thing

Congrats Ben. I think you can find leeches in about every walk of life

Been out on the water a couple nights this week and landed a few eyes. Nothing huge but some good eaters. Most were right around 16″ but I did see another guy land 3 that were over 25″ Too bad they all went home with him.

Get his boat numbers or plate numbers, Layne? He could use a visit if he’s taking 3 home over 22″ in one day. Those are people who flat out shouldn’t be able to fish.

I keep the sheriff’s number in my cell phone. I usually call something in a few times a year.

I tried guys… but he left really quick like after he saw what I was doing. He has been out there in the same spot each night since then as well trying to do the same thing. He has been getting fish still but none of that size anymore. Last night I was out getting into a few fish again and man you would not believe the amount of cars out there in every parking lot!
