Deep Creek Walleyes

Type: Nontidal
Region:
Location: Deep Creek Lake

Thanks to the nice weather I got my new boat out for its inaugural run on Deep Creek Lake this past Tuesday afternoon! I had the entire lake to myself, and the weather was gorgeous� for sunbathing more-so than fishing. It was dead calm, so learning my new ride was the priority. I did manage to land a nice healthy 19� walleye and lost one other before time to leave though. The producer was an 1/8th ounce jig swum slowly just off the bottom in 15-20 feet of water. The takes were both very subtle, only feeling a slight tap and some weight. The fish is a gravid female, but with water temps from 37-38 degrees, spawning is still a little way off.
