Starvation 7/10-11

Spent parts of the morning Saturday and Sunday out on Starvation for some exploritory fishing with my dad. Haven’t been there in a couple years and wanted to find some walleye if possible. Tried a couple places with no luck then headed under the bridge exploring. Ended up about a half mile or so past the bridge with only one other boat in sight. Decided to drift along a bit dragging a worm and my dad finally picked up a small perch. Decided to anchor down and wound up picking up 16 perch and 2 walleyes Saturday before being blown off the lake. We were in the spot for about three hours.

Came back Sunday, this time with my mom and sister along as well. Headed straight back to the same spot and did quite well again. In about two hours of fishing, we easily ended up picking up about 40 perch, only about 10 keepers, and about 15 walleye, only two of them going on ice. This time a storm really chased us off as we were feeling electircal shocks jumping from our rods to our arms. Interesting sensation. All in all, not a bad couple days. Overheard some guys at the cleaning station saying how slow it was, but is was enough to keep us busy. Good times.

Thanks for the info, the wife and I are headed up the 22nd for 4 days, haven’t fished it yet this year so looking forward to it. Also need to check my trail cameras near Current Creek if they are still there, bow hunts not too far off.

It was definitely a good time. Just finished up the fish fry. Enjoyed for sure. Have a good trip and let us know how it goes.

headed up there Sun the 18th through the 24th, think i just booked m028. got the last tent site available. better book if you haven’t already. anyone know why the beach campground is closed in middle of summer? has it been closed a while?

I heard they are improving it.

I was told by a buddy who fishes it every weekend that it is still open thru the 24th on a first come first serve basis. I have Reservations allready, as of yesterday there were still a few available. I think I will be in #16. Todd (Wet1) are you planning on being there that weekend?
