| Taking my nephew out for the first time on the Bay tomorrow and looking for a report. Plan on going out of Suamico. I know the Battle on the Bay is coming soon, but hoping for a starting point. Don't need 'hogs', just enough eyes to keep him from getting bored. Private message me if it is too hot to post!!! |

| I was up to G reef this AM. Up tight in 10 ft had 3 right off. Then it got crowded and I got out of there. Tomorrow the weekenders will not be there so you should have a good time. |

| Really fun day, caught 20 or so eyes, 28" being the biggest but most around 22".
Lots of goats and a couple of really big cats. The nephew said it was his best day ever. I said you mean "your best day fishing ever". He said no, "my best day ever". He took the big one home for his bedroom wall. He slept all the way home. Gotta love it...
Thanks again for the info guys.
Oh yeah, 22 feet of water, 1 ounce keel weights, 24 feet back. Tommy's blades, purple/red with the hammered copper backs. |

| Guest,
The Bay is loaded with Walleyes right now, part of the reward in fishing there is finding the fish on a daily basis and getting away from the crowds on the smaller lakes. Start anywhere on the lower bay in 19-23 feet of water and start trolling. If you have not caught a Walleye in 30 minutes, continue to look. I have been moving 1/2 mile on some days and then 5 miles on others.
A good place to start is the lighthouse straight out from Suamico. There is a 23-25 foot slot that runs right down the center of the Bay.
Purple/Chartruese fishscale tape on back with Chartruese/Purple/Green/Orange beads, 30-40 back on 5/8 to 1 oz weights @ 1.1-1.5 mph with the wind has been great for the last month or so.

Location: Manitowoc, WI | I ended up doing a show today with Doug Schreiber out on the Bay. The bite slowed a bit but we ended up with about 10-12 good walleyes ranging from 19-24" in the same areas previously mentioned. 20-25' back with 3/4 to 1 oz weights was best. Colors didn't seem to matter as they hit all different colors. |
