Hey guys, sorry I haven't been on here recently. I had a career change and no longer had internet access, but I'm back now. I took a job selling boats cuz I love fishing and it turns out that ya work so many horus during open water tha it leaves no time for fishing, so I had to find something else. Anyways, my prayers were answered and I did end up getting to Winni this year for opener! Did pretty darn good, too. On Saturday we got about 20 b/t me and pops, 10 were in the slot and another 10 or so were over, with the biggest at a nice 25". Sunday was the wife's first mother's day, so I decided to take the day off and celebrate w/ her and my mother. Monday we got alot of nice fish, but only 5 were in the slot. The biggest wasn't huge at 24", but most were b/t 20 and 22", nice fish. Fishergirl, if you're headed up to winnie around june, the fish should be on the midlake humps by then. Try bena bar really early in the morning, around sunup, in 12-18 fow w/ a lindy and a leach, or the same on the sunken islands on the north side by the rock pile and off stony point. Some fish may still be off the shallow flats, and High Banks can really be hot that time of year. Basically, find where the wind has been blowing into for the last few days, and go to the windy side of the lake. If you have a good wind from the west with steady weather, focus on High Banks in 6-14 fow. I've had some of my best days there. If you want any more advice, send me a pm!
