Just A Pleasant Day on Erie!

Joshua and Alex came for a visit and booked a half - day trip. They were happy to catch anything that was biting but wanted to fish smallmouth and try for walleye if conditions were right. With the wind being light we headed out in the main lake to try for walleye first. It didn’t take Joshua long to hook our first fish of the day, a beautiful 4.5 lb walleye! Wanting to get Alex her first walleye, we made another pass and, after catching a drum, bingo, her first keeper sized walleye hit the net! First half of the plan- SUCCESS! Phase two was to target smallmouth on rock piles and drop offs. Joshua again started us off, boating a beautiful smallmouth and his action remained steady for most of the remainder of the trip. He even tusseled with, and eventually landed an 8lb drum! Alex started slow then continually built up steam boating several beautiful smallmouth including the biggest one of the day! She definitely figured out how to catch them! All in all a pleasant morning with perfect Buffalo summer weather and great clients to boot! I eagerly await future adventures with two new friends!
