Leech Lake Walleye Opener Report, Part 2

My neighbor John Newman filed this report from Sucker Bay, Leech Lake during Saturday's (May 9) walleye opener.

It was a pretty chilly and breezy opener on Leech Lake. I was not even going to go out, but when saw a few nets in action among the flotilla (parked off Second Duck Point) I ventured out for a few hours. I caught a pike and a few perch. I had a sizeable hit of some sort, but no walleye were boated. As for the other anglers, I saw a few fish netted, but could not tell if they were walleye or pike.

Not the kind of success that some folks had on opener (see Good Opening Day on Leech Lake post), but at least John made it out onto the water.
