This is kinda late,but I been off work since friday noon. Anyway,launched slayerboat at 8am on sat. and tried a couple drifts near stoll mt. but nada.Went over to bluffs to right of sucker cove and started throwing a twister to shore and working it back at mid-depth and lower.Caught 7 or 8 little pike from 10-13".Missed prolly 7 or 8 also.Worked the bluffs from s-cove almost to Lazy boy.Saw some dudes trolling in the middle catch a large pike maybe 8 lbs or so-maybe bigger.
Anyway headed back to Stoll Mt. and tried a drift and zilch but the wind began and on the next drift I popped a 17.5" bo on a bubble/worm.Next drift lost a NICE bo at least 20" plus,he grabbed 30 ft of line the instant I set the hook and then did a nice cartwheel and spit the hook.After a couple fruitless drifts I went back to camp to eat lunch with my wife. While eating the wind started howling from a different direction(NW versus SSW).Fished till 230 pm but no more bites. The lake was turning over and there was algae everywhere,makes the fishing tougher,IMO.
