Taggart Bay 6/23-27

[50fish]

Retuned yesterday from TBL. Of the 4 in our group, 3 had never caught a walleye before so there was a learning curve. First afternoon we caught 3 walleye and a few bass. Second day was overcast and we found some fish. Ended up with 12 keepers between us. That was by far our best day, but we still managed a few keepers each day. My dad and his friend caught all their walleye on jigs with worms or worm harness’ and trolling.  My boat, we only caught 3 walleye on worms. Most of our fish came on keitech swimbaits or Berkeley 4” power worms on 1/8th oz jig heads, drifting and jigging.  Also caught a few on rapalas.   The highlight of the trip for me was the bass. I’m a smallmouth junkie, and we caught a lot of fish in the 2-3lb range, topped off by a 4lb 4oz toad. We also landed 3 pike with the biggest being about 27”.  All in all, I’d say pretty successful for some Canadian newbies.

Nice trip and thanks for sharing

Glad you had a good trip. Hope you're hooked on Kipawa! My son and I leave for TBL outpost on the 14th. I'm really happy we're not going this next week. The temps are forecast to be in the 80's or higher during the week.

THANKS

Thanks for the report. Yes...both walleye and Kipawa require a learning curve, but it sounds like the fish were mostly cooperative and you got into some nice fish. Can't wait to get back there in a little more than 3 weeks.
