The fishing is still pretty good out in the mud. We had about 25 walleyes ranging from 12.5'' up to 24.5'' pulling cranks and harnesses in two days of fishing. The key was targeting the top 8' of water, ignore the deeper marks and fish high.

We got our limits also on Saturday, plus some small ones we threw back. Our fish came on cranks 10-11.5 ft down. Glad we were done by 11:30am, because it was hot and the bugs were bad.

Purple,

We were fishing 1.5-3 miles from shore in the Brothertown and Calumetville area. The bugs were not bad either and as it got calmer the higher you had to fish. We had one come on a crawler harness with a 1/2 oz. in-line bead sinker, 15' behind the board.

Thanks for the info... I've never fished that part of the lake.... being from Menasha, I fish the north and east shore the most... How far south of Stockbridge are you fishing and where is a good place to launch from??

Thanks...

We were camping at Columbia Park(Pipe), so that is where we launched. If you head NW after you clear the two green bouys, its about 2.5-3.0 miles from there. I was pulling harnesses with orange in the blade, just off of Brothertown and Winnebago Point, but my brother-inlaw was 1-2 miles to the west of me pulling cranks, mainly the smallest orange and black wally divers. He had better numbers and I had a little better quality. It was the best mud bite I've had this season, but that was Saturday and Sunday. Who knows what will happen now or this weekend.
