Tried swimbaits, hardbaits, and more, (no live bait in the boat) and the only thing to get bit was a ned rig. Good fishing until about noon. Stayed on them, just struggled to get bites. Fun morning tho! I filmed this whole day too. Check it out on the Fish Hunt Forever YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/g14QQ-wWkxY

Hot bite on Saturday. Dragging a jig and a shiner or pitching a jig and a shiner produced many walleyes. Can't wait for the rest of the year!
