Spring Walleye Debut - Lake Sakakawea East Side

[@blythebloemendaal300]

Good start to the year!

[@rippinglipsadventures]

Any day there isn't skunk on me and I can help out a friend to keep it off himself is a great day for sure! Ha, ha!

It must feel good to get the boat in the water again. Hopefully I can do the same next week.

[@rippinglipsadventures]

Yeah. It’s definitely a lot easier than drilling holes in water. Ha, ha!

Well done video with some good early season action

[@rippinglipsadventures]

Thanks Mr. Crappie T! I definitely felt lucky to not have had to drive around and spend hours looking for biting fish that day. Bloom did all the work! I just found some warmer water for us and waited for them to put a feed bag on.

[@BloemendaalFishing]

You probably beat everyone on the lake that day! Tough pre-spawn after that cold front.

[@rippinglipsadventures]

You did say that was the warmest water you saw all day long on the east side, so maybe so for the area. Next time, I'll have to wager a t-bone on it! Ha, ha, ha!

Grinder!

[@rippinglipsadventures]

Yeah. Fortunately, for Bruce and I, Brett had already been grinding all day and we found some close to home and just waited on them. Pretty lucky for us, and unlucky for everyone else we knew that went out that day.
