Men on a Mission


On a Friday night when many people are thinking about going out on the town, Mike from Scranton and Kevin from Clarks Summit were on a walleye mission on lake Wallenpaupack.  Conditions were less than ideal as the winds were howling with 15 sustained and gusts to 35 making it very challenging to function in low light conditions. First spot in semi sheltered water they landed a really nice 13# Striper that set the tone for the night. At that point anticipation was high for a superb night of fishing. After running to a couple more spots, the pair landed there first walleye of their evening. Then without warning another Walleye hit right at the boat and excitement was high and the adrenaline was flowing. Continuing to battle the persistent wind, Kevin landed another massive Striper that weighed in at a whopping 18.24#! The wind then shifted 180 degrees after a few sprinkles of rain and the and warm humid air changed to cool and damp. The last hour of fishing produced an additional two walleyes totaling their catch of walleyes to four and all really nice sized fish in the 4# class.  It was quite a successful night for this duo as they accomplished what they set out to do with Legends Outdoors.
