Pool 7 1-8lb flat head
Observations: I was 2-3 weeks too late for the peak of the walleye bite on Lake Pepin. The shallow bays were already weeded in.

The fishing was not very good on Lake Pepin; I definitely missed the good bite this year. The landing and lake were very crowded on account of a walleye tournament that was taking place out of Lake City. Ironically I went a little ways up the Chippewa River and that is where I caught two of my fish.
The flat head bite has definitely slowed! We only caught one fish and had a couple other feeble bites.
