I'm convinced there are no fish in this lake. At least no walleye. The recent flooding may have passed them over the dam.

Nephew left the crawlers in the sun... What a ripe smell.

At least the Leinies are cold

Headed to door county this friday for walleye fishing.

As it gets hotter I highly recommend Leinies Grapefruit Shandy. Served ice cold while on a boat they are awfully refreshing! Never fished Nelson but down by Hertel, after 35 years of not seeing a single walleye, the neighbor has been catching some nice ones over the past 3-4 years.

You know, Scott, I have never caught a fish out of Nelson Lake either, you might be right that there are no fish in it ... does it matter that I have never fished Nelson Lake? :beguiled::D:rofl:
