Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 06-24-2013 Got a chance to go out and try my new fish scale I got for fathers day and i found i have been way underestimating my fishes weight. Oakley was a little slow few nice trout and walleye but lots of small eyes. Not sure whats going on up there but this isnt going to be a real great year for Oakley. Walcott is fishing fantastic we had our best day ever up there Sunday bigist fish of the day was 5.43 . If you would like details please feel free to pm me.

Looked like the bass guys were doing fantastic tho [cool] [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - Chris_S - 06-30-2013 Wow! Walcott just moved up on my bucketlist. [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - cpierce - 06-30-2013 Awesome fish! It has been a while since I got a two hander. [signature] Re: [Chris_S] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-01-2013 Its a great fishery if you hit it just right [cool] [signature] Re: [cpierce] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-01-2013 It was a great fish My measure net had it at 25 inches but it was really thick. didnt weight it as it was a long fight and wanted to get it back in the water, also my new scale should only be used if your planing on keeping the fish. [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - cpierce - 07-01-2013 Most of those it is better to weigh them in the net. Just hook it to the net - weigh it - subtract the weight o the net. No matter--- that is a beautiful, very healthy fish. I bet it was quite a fight. I love fish with shoulders like that. [signature] Re: [cpierce] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-01-2013 I never thought of that great idea , it was she had a ball with it. thanks [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - dtayboyz - 07-04-2013 Never got to weigh any today at Walcott, lots of bucks hanging around the fry. The wife had a good one to the boat on a night crawler. You guys catch any trout? we launched at the same time this morning, we were in the silver/red champion. [signature] Re: [dtayboyz] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-05-2013 You gota start throwing things at me lol. I didn't recognize you [frown]. Well at least ya got one to the boat [cool]. I was a little worried as a buddy fished it yesterday and said it was over fish were hid up in the deep holes. The first two or 3 hours we didn't even get a hit. we went from hole to hole and finally told the wife this is crazy were just not giving them what they want. we started trolling over them switching fast as possible until we were half way threw the tacklebox and i got a fish. we spend the rest of our day catching even had times when both of us were hooked up. we ended up having to leave because boat was running on fumes lol, But we did have our best day ever at walcott. these are the two biggest fish. and one scenery photo. The fish are deep like 6 colors deep and seems every time we go up there what worked last weeks has faded into the past. [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - cpierce - 07-05-2013 Awesome fish! Seems like the harder you have to work to start catching, the better the fish. [signature] Re: [cpierce] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-05-2013 Thanks and i think your right we worked out butts off to figure out what they wanted. [signature] Re: [drowning_flys] Walcott and oakley report - dtayboyz - 07-05-2013 The good fish came out of 15 ft of water, the wind made it kinda tough to fish plastics, but it sure helped keep the temps tire bearable. Lots of bass fry. Since I quit drink beer, I don't fish for trout on purpose [signature] Re: [dtayboyz] Walcott and oakley report - drowning_flys - 07-05-2013 Bass must not mind the warm water like trout. lol I fish for trout cause my wife cant cast due to atv accident But i sure do miss fly fishing. But your right the wind was the only thing that kept us out that long I don't like the warm temps either [signature]
