Fished solo Thursday on a beautiful calm day.
Caught close to 15 walleyes, kept 5, all jigging.

Back with my friend André on Friday.
Nice weather, calm water, and great bites.
We put 9 nice size walleyes in the box, releasing at least as many.
This was probably the last warm day we had this fall.
Forecast showing temps are dropping and wind is picking up for a least all week.
Time to wear the warm boots and jackets.

Went back on St-Louis on Wednesday. We had beautiful weather with calm wind and nice warm temp.
Walleyes were not as active as during our previous outing. Trolling did not work so we went back to jigging.
We managed to hook close to 30 fish, but only kept 3 that were decent size.
Temps are now much cooler with rain in forecast.
Will try to go out this weekend but definitely will be wearing warmer.

We were back on St-Louis Saturday for about 5 hours of fishing.
OUCH... it was cold.
Jigging was slow so we went back to trolling.
We put 4 nice walleyes in the box and released almost twice.
I lost my lucky lure when line broke after a hard hit, did not see the culprit but he is now swimming with a trophy in his mouth.

Also caught this nice bass. He put up a good fish and deserved to go back.

On the lake again Friday. It was warmer than the previous day, with less wind, but still no bites.
We tried multiple locations trolling and jigging but could not find the fish.
Wind started picking up mid afternoon so we pulled the boat out.
Weather for the next days is not looking good.

Fished almost every day since beginning of November until mid last week.
Bite slowed down a lot lately. We even had multiple skunk days.
Last outing Wednesday we only got 3 bites, 2 walleyes and a perch, all very chubby.
Spent Thursday getting boat ready for winterization, and Saturday it went back into storage.
Now I'm counting on all your fishing reports through late fall and winter till next spring.
