Headed to Rufus tomorrow morning to do some walleye fishing. Wonder how the bite has been up there. Any information would be great.

Two of us caught 11 Saturday out of Rufus. We were trolling chartruce (SP?) spinners with a whole nightcrawler downstream in about 25 ft of water. The rig that worked the best was a Luhr Jensen Biggs Walleye Spinner item # 2332-003-0080 from Sportsmans. We used a bottom
walker with with 3 oz of lead. Walleye fish fry tonight

. Size ranged from 14 to 20 inches. We had a beautiful day with very little wind.
Hope this helps.

DANG, I just knew I made the wrong call by not going.

Was sure the recent decision by BPA to dump extra water and added turbidity was gonna turn off the bite.
Oh well, not the first time I've been wrong...probably won't be the last either.
Glad to hear you guys did good though.
What no Pics????
