[QUOTE="Vollmer, post: 452044, member: 8014"] Went out, Friday, with a good buddy, to see how things were shaping up, for the post spawn bite, in the New Town area, on Lake Sakakawea. I had been out a couple of times, in the past 10 days, and things were good, but still sluggish. We had high hopes that the walleye were removed enough, from the spawn, that they would be onto their post spawn feed ... and, they were! We started by side imaging some familiar shorelines. It was immediately apparent that the fish were moved into the area. We started pitching jigs, and before long, we had landed a hefty 25 1/2". [ATTACH type="full"]75755[/ATTACH] We let that one go, and continued on to catch our limit, plus a handful of extras just for fun! [ATTACH type="full"]75756[/ATTACH] We stuck to targeting the fish in the shallows, but there were others caching them out to 20+ fow, trolling. We mostly caught ours on jig/minnow, or jig/chub, but did, also, catch a few on jig/plastic. In the morning the fish seemed sluggish, but as the day went on we were able to increase our aggressiveness. Water temps were in the low to mid 50's, and we even some some low 60's (surface temp) later in the day. White was a good color, as usual (on Lake Sakakawea). I would expect the fishing to remain good, in this area, as the walleye migrate their way through, so get out there and make some memories! [/QUOTE]
