This week the bite has changed a little. The perch seem to be moving deeper. The best bite seems to be either along the
deep 28-32’ break or even deeper in 32-34’.
The perch being caught are all good sized, an honest 12-14”.
Walleyes seem to be more active along the reef, but most are
the 2013 year class. Bigger walleyes are
also being caught along Agate Bay Reef.
The big northerns have slowed along the reef and maybe this is why the
smaller walleyes have moved in.
Still no word from the DNR about 2015 harvest quotas. Rumor has it that the perch and northern
quotas were unchanged and the walleye quota was still being discussed. I assume they have reached a conclusion but I
have not heard what it is. I do not look
for much of a change but hopefully they will allow more harvest this year.
Next weekend is Valentines Day on Saturday and Presidents
Day on Monday. Hope everyone will enjoy
a nice long weekend.
Sunday, February 22nd is the last day of walleye
season and the last day for pulling houses off.
