The temps the night before dipped down to 30 degrees, so it was a chilly morning. We decided to stay on Ogish today, and after a nice breakfast, tried trolling for lakers going N from the campsite and across the points and around islands. We marked fish at all of the likely locations, but could not muster much of a bite. After a slow morning, we had lunch back at camp, and headed for the southern part of the lake. Again, we focused on points and around and between the islands. We caught a few fish, including a laker on a jig and leech, and a few more smallies on the Husky Jerks. Again, marking fish at points and on the bottom anywhere from 10-20 feet. No walleye today.
