Made it up to the pond today with a full boat. Finally 4 guys we can run 8 rods! 4 riggers all with cheaters and 4 leadcore rods off of the otter boats. Launched and set up headed south toward Thompson’s. Landed a couple small lakers in 10 minutes and continued south. No hits past the point so we decided to head north back into laker land and just watch rods pop. Laker after laker after laker. Not one silver landed. Spoons from stinger scorpions, warriors, speedy shiners and crazy Ivan’s all worked. Today they seemed to want blue/silver and anything with a little pink. Around 1:30 we were doing a loop south of converse when a 3 color leadcore fires on the shore line side. Expecting another smallish laker my buddy is just cranking it in when all of a sudden it grew. Put the fish in the net and all of us went WHAT IS THAT?! WALLEYE!!!! First one ever landed on ReelInvestment and a slob! 26” 8 pounds. Fish was suspended in 130 FOT and hit a crazy ivan petunia at 2.3 mph. Awesome day of fishing with great friends and a new species to top it off! Ended with 24 lakers and the Walter. Still can’t seem to put anything together for silver. Second trip in a row we havnt even had a salmon on. Not complaining though!
Good luck to everyone fishing the fathersday derby, I look forward to the posts.
Fish on!

Pretty work guys!!
It’s been a laker fest around converse with a few silver mixed in.
No shortage and they hit pretty aggressively
Congrats on the eye!!
