Went camping at forbes lake wed an thursday. Wed wasn't real hot, but we caught a few. Thursday started out great we had 2 nice walleye in about 20 minutes then we got rained out, went an packed up and the rain quit....
So we headed back out and caught 8 more :) The smallest was 1.5 lbs and the biggest was 4lbs,and MAN did they FIGHT!! They have a good campground and a nice beach too for the kids. We will be heading back up there soon, it was fun for the kids as well as me and my dad too!!!

I'll post the pics when i get em downloaded.

Must of been fun, looks like some good catches. What do you catch walleye on? Never been fishing for them.

We used to use Earie Dreary's for that in Canada.
