Day 6 of 7
Wednesday, September 18, 2024
Our last day in the BWCA was going to be a fishing day. Now that we knew there were Walleye to be found, we would fish every way we could and hopefully treat ourselves to another fish dinner. The wind picked up that day and I was happy to have an anchor. We managed to catch 3-4 nice keepers and settled on keeping two since there were only the two of us.
Most of the Walleye were caught with Mepps or Blue Fox spinners just casting towards shore. To me, this is unusual. Normally I struggle to catch walleye because I need to find them suspended and jig for them.
It was a great way to spend our last day.
