Interesting walleye observation
« on: Apr 27, 2006, 08:29 PM »
Last year at one of my favorite walleye spots, there was an interesting pattern.  Every single time I was on it, I didn't get a bite from an eye until the carp started jumping nearby.   Funny thing is that about 8am when the bite would stop, so did the carp  ??? go figure  ::)

Maybe when the carp were jumping they were stirring up the minnow schools and causing confusion, the walleye may have been taking advantage of the spooked and confused minnows.
Just a though :-\

The walleyes were feeding on carp... ;)
Oh Lord - there he is, it feels like a big one, please don\'t let me lose him, I\'ve never caught one this big before.  I\'ll try not to horse him, and if I land him, I promise to release him, and make a graphite replica, if my wife says it\'s ok.  Thank you for the Rapalas...
