Default Midnight eyes Saturday night

Against my better judgement, I went out searching for eyes during our the gigantic full moon. The bite leading up to the moon sucked royally, but I couldn't resist the punishment lol. Repeated skunkings are like scabs... you pick and pull at them and eventually rip them off even though you know you shouldn't hahaha...gross.

Anyyyyyy who... got to a bend in the river around midnight. Fished till 3 am. Switched things up a tad this time. Found a relax bait in my bag--the last one I have that was given to me by Skunk last summer in the 3" variety. Put it on a 1/8 Oz jig head and it produced. Nailed 2 19"ish eyes rather quickly with it. After an hour and a half lull I switched to the magic lure and had a 21" commit immediately. My first RR walleye limit! All were released though. Looking forward to fall...pics below. Vampire out!

Thumbs up Re: Midnight eyes Saturday night

Good fish Jigman! All perfect sized fish as well. That's a tasty limit right there but I'm glad you released them. Way to shake off the big STINKER!

I floated all around Monks under that big 'ol moon with only a dink largemouth to show for it. Spooky moon when the fog lifted up off the lake and nobody else around, I loved it...except for the lack of fish. Every time I see you guys put up a post like this, it gives me the itch and I get it in my head that my first walleye is out there waiting for me. Thanks guys! Seriously, good fish Jigman, not the ideal conditions to nail them in.

You only caught those fish because I wasn't there. You know who started that Skunk run for you. That'll teach you to invite me along to one of your night time adventures. Sorry it took so long for you to wash it off! HAHA!

Nice job my man...way to not give up the fight!
