We planned to feast on fresh walleye for dinner on Saturday night, May 24, so Rick and I limited our fishing to the afternoon. The stats:

Time: 1:00-3:30 p.m., CDT
Location/method: Trolling @ Ottertail Peninsula Point (very rough water), Duck Point and Second Duck Point; drifting with jigs and Gulp Alive leeches and minnows at "The Birches."
Winds: South, 10-15 mph, gusting to 25 mph
Water Temp.: 54 degrees

No fish caught. We did enjoy a tasty walleye dinner from the two fish I caught the previous evening. I cleaned the fish just an hour before cooking them for dinner. That's fresh fish!!

After dinner, Kathleen, Rick and I enjoyed a roaring fire in the fire pit at the cabin.
