Same for my buddies and their buddies. These spots produce best in August and September. Yellow perch proved difficult to keep off my line, all the way from Chaudoirs dock up to Little Sturgeon. I went through four dozen crawlers on Saturday, conserving as best I could. Bass action remains steady.
Fish are still on their beds in northern Door County and are vulnerable.
Washington Island opened on the first of July, and annually produces six pound plus smallies. Find the reeds, tie on a tube jig, and prepare yourself. A fish of these proportions can take well over twelve years to achieve its size. And yes, the reports of a sixty inch, estimated sixty pound musky caught this year from the bay, are apparently verified. Of course, it was caught by a bass fisherman.
