Today was just a half day trip for me that didn't produce a "ton" of action but it did have its moments. Most of them came from watching one of my guys named "Sam". Now I have known Sam for quite some time and this is the first time we have had the chance to fish together. See, Sam just graduated from high school this year and his dad thought this would be a good chance to get he and his brother into some walleyes. 6:00 am came early for all of us except his younger brother Michael who decided not to go due to that fact that it was WAY too early.

We started out fishing rigs tipped with leaches at the same humps that have been producing for me these past few weeks. I located a bunch of fish but couldn't get them to respond. TO ANYTHING!!! I tried a couple of different humps with the same result. I received a call from a buddy that found some baitfish and a few 'eyes . We headed over there and started catching fish right away. Now back to Sam. Our first fish was caught by him in a very unorthodoxed way. He was pulling a rig and told me he " had one goin". I attempted to guide Sammy through his first bite and away we went. I think he did everything I told him NOT to do. His dad and I just sat back a laughed. The fish was "on", then it was "gone...then back "on" then I'm not sure what happened but the fish ended up at the side of the Lund. Our first keeper. I told Sam I was gonna write this and he just laughed and said "ok no problem" with that great big smile he always has.

I got out the spinner rods and we began in 13 fow. BAM ...Randy had one on but it let go. then Sam had one and that let go also. We picked and scrounged for our fish and had some laughs while doin it. We had fish in the box and also let a few  big ones go. Below is a fish that Randy released.

 I hope that Michael will be with us the next time we are on the water as he has the biggest smile of all three of them. Maybe we will have to start around noon.
