Doc Walleye's annual jig molding party was last night. We got down to business, melted up a bunch of lead and poured what we need for the season. BTW, I did get that lead cut up. I used a sawzall with a wood blade and it worked perfectly.
River is upwards of 5 ft on NOAA today. That's a nice increase for those going for the early season fish. I will get out later this week and check things out. I don't know if we're ever going to get a big snowstorm, but now that we're approaching March look out for the rain.

& I was not invited. You know I use a lot of jigs. Of course I drink a lot of beer (free) too.
Lots here the Losers Report...
Went out to Orleans park yesterday. Seen a few guys out there trying there luck. Nice day to fish but didn't see anyone reel any fish in. Come on march 15!
Walked the River From Side cut for a couple hours saw 14 guys talked to 10 of them this was a 1 PM most were leaving they had been there all morning ,no fish and they all said they did even get a carp..passed this information but some fool drug someone else to the river,to prove me wrong..but even if they were biting he would only catch Buffalo..I did hear a rumor some old man got a Sucker or Two
Ok Graybeard, Doc W, the closer and Myself tried Monday evening for 2 hours. The Doc had 1 mystery fish on but that was it. Water is at a good level if only some fish were around.
Took dog to river for walk. Friend of my claimed he snaged 2 WE at BW straight out fr road. If so & with the 2 he claimed he snagged a couple of days ago this would give him a 0 for 4. 90% chance he's telling the truth. Another friend down at Doc's hole had 1 mystery fish on. 4 or 5 others no fish on stringer.
My excitment-Calling wife to bring extra keys down after locking my in car. Guess i better start driving truck down which I never lock.
Fisherboy.its fun getting old we are not afraid to admit when we do something stupid,I carry a extra key in my pocket..I have noticed the Liars I know and not claiming to catch any fish,that's sad,,game wardens out in force yesterday..
I tried it sunday for awhile & got nothing. With the weather & rising water I'm hoping this weekend will be good fishing. I'll head that way sat. morning.
tried it tuesday at orleans and BW. No luck though! Just one mystery fish at BW. Yeah it's still early but I had to scratch the itch and try out the new outfit. Graybeard not kidding about DNR passed one leaving BW.
Tried BW for 2 hrs or so. Nothing on. Friend caught 1 sucker.
My excitement for day was talking to friend in parking lot when the DNR drove in. 1 of the 'fish protectors' said "my name" have you caught any yet? Said no. Then he said he didn't believe he ever met me before. He was the new Lucas County 'fish protector'. God I guess I should feel special to be so well known. Might have been the other one fr Hancock County that knew me. In any case the LC one did not even look old enought to vote. But he did seem like a nice guy. I told him I hope only to talk to him socially, not professionally. The HC one said not to do anything I shouldn't. Seem fair enough.
Fisherboy,Sounds Like you are a Celebrity.I figured you were when I got my picture taken while fishing with you.Sounds like you can walk OK .I heard a rumor you got the lead out of you ass .and getting it put in weights,,I should do the same I feel weighted down..

Maybe this will help.I Posted the above post ,I guess I hit the wrong button.or forgot my name ...old timers you know
You are a celebrity Eugene!
Rivers is up another 2 feet and still rising
That fp is a little too gung ho as usual! Most that I run into are pretty cool. Even though there r some douche bags out there ! I hope only to deal with them socially. This will b my first river run but I'm a seasoned fisher. Good luck with the walleye this year!
They probably use video of Marty Baer as a training tool to teach the young bucks how to be real dickheads. Hopefully whomever replaces Marty is not another bigheaded jerkoff like he was.
Took Missy down to BW. Water on road up to creek. Not really surprising. This was at 4:30. Wasted time watching a few fishermen at the Sewer Plant. No fish however but a guy did come down with a WE. This was the 1st 1 I myself saw this yr. Was up towards the bridge. May force me to actually fish, not watch.
