Started yesterday at 5.30pm and finished this morning at 5am. The rock bass were small to big and the walleye were mostly12 to 14 inches I kept 2 walleye both 15 inches. Crank baits and plastic under a slip bobber and my yellow and white crank bait caught most of the fish. Was in 8 feet of water I would say all fish were a foot off the bottom. Dozens and dozens of times the walleye would bump the bait and I would have to cast back to the same spot 3 or 4 times to hook the fish. Also the strangest part of last night was my retreive. For walleye I crank very slow about 2 seconds for one crank. Last night the fish would not hit until I sped up to 1 crank per second. Two beavers getting in my way all night LOL. With the full moon you could see them very well. Lucky beavers don't eat fish or I would never catch any. It got cold went down to three degrees. Going back out in a couple hours...going down to two degrees tonight with a NW wind and frost. Good luck out there and stay safe.

I took quite a few pictures of all the fish so I wouldn't post blurry ones like I normally do.LOL This one was 14 inches but too skinny to keep...catch him again in two years.
