05/27/2012 Shabbona Lake Fishing Report

My wife and I fished on Sunday 5/27 from 4pm – 9pm. We fished a wind-blown (and I mean wind-blown) weed line in about 7 feet of water. We caught about 12 walleye (largest were 20 in, 19.5 in, and 18.5 in), 8 largemouth (largest were 20.5 in 4lb 13 oz and 20.5 in 4 lb 10 oz), 1 17 inch hybrid striper, 1 yellow perch, and 2 bluegill. All fish were caught on leeches near the weed edge and all were released.

I also have to admit my wife out-fished me 3 to 1. I caught one of the big largemouth, the hybrid striper, and several 16 in walleye. She caught everything else. I just held two of her fish for the pictures.
