Back from Michigan
Well after a 14 hour drive through snow and ice we arrived in Sebewaing Michigan. The forecast was dismal at best, but with only 2 days to fish the weather didn't matter. With highs in the teens and lows being sub zero, we new the fishing would be tough ! They seemed to favor a yellow or green lead head jig tipped with a minnow. The fish we caught were all in the 3 to 4 pound range. We fished in about 14 foot of water straight off fish point, Thomas Marine offers a great entry point. If you are not familiar with Saginaw Bay, take your GPS or a good compass. We took our Artic Cat 4x4 about 6 miles out and had good ice the whole way. The fish were all caught in the last 20 minutes of day light , so you have to know how to get back in the dark!! That's where the GPS comes in, the bay is unforgiving and claims many fisherman each year!! Saginaw Bay offers some of the best Walleye fishing in the states. The fishing is great all year and we will make this trip again in late July or early August. Thanks for a great trip Brian and Jodi hope to see you soon. P.S.... These fish eat really GOOD !!!
