We(Evie and I) fished Banks from 7-3 thru 7-6 every chance we could between wind events and 100 plus degree heat. We stayed at Coulee City park(what a zoo on a holiday weekend), with the wind blowing from the north east most of the time we had white caps on the Coulee city end of the lake most mornings. We had fished this lake two weeks earlier and knew that with the new lowered size limit on walleye that limits would be easy picking so we only fished when the wind would die down and until the heat became uncomfortable. It would only take about an hour to get our two limits in the livewell then we would cull out the smaller fish as we caught larger ones. We end up with 1 at 28 1/2 inch, 7 in the 24 to 22 inch range and he rest of our 4 day limit ranged from 14 to 20 1/2 inches. We each had to release two walleye over 22 inch because we already had our one over 22inch for the day. In my opinion Fish and Game did the right thing by lowering the size limit to get some of the smaller walleye out of this lake. Now if they would do some thing to thin out the Bass then the one million Kokanee they release each year might have a chance, until then they are just wasting money raising Bass and Walleye food. Right now this would be a great place to bring kids for fast easy limits. We trolled Slow Death hook rigged several different ways and every thing caught fish.
