Another Great day of Fishing!!

For our second trip of the day, I met up with Brandon, Joe, Joey, and Carter and launched out of Sheffield. After about 30 minutes of running, we found some nice marks on sonar in 50 feet of water. As soon as the lines went in, it was game on! We had an incredible day, ending with a cooler full of 30 walleye, including several giants. The guys were all smiles chasing big girls all afternoon. I’m not so sure about Carter… ladies, from the pics I think he found himself a cutie! ???? To top it all off, we finished the day with a true monster that taped out well over the 31.5-inch “Judge” ruler, pushing right around 32 inches. It crushed a black-headed Wonder Bread #9 Flicker Minnow from Hammertime Lures. Flicker Minnows were absolutely on fire today, running anywhere from 40 to 90 feet back with up to three-ounce snap weights set at 30 feet. What a day, boys!

Thursday morning I had the pleasure of taking Dondi and his son Joshua fishing on Lake Erie. What a beautiful April day on the lake! We set out in the Team North River boat and began to mark fish in about 44’ of water N of Lorain. We started setting lines and it was Game On!! The Offshore Planer Boards were shooting back left and right with fish all the way to Beaver Creek. We threw back countless fish and kept a nice cooler full with 3 Limits. Many fish were 5+ lbs, with the biggest going just over 8 at 29 1/4” Bandits weighted down with 2oz at 50’ back and a total of 80-130’ of line out took our fish. Color didn’t seem to matter. Trips available for 1-3 persons for next weekend yet.

Started out Friday morning with Andy taking his new P. B. Walleye, the first fish of the day going 29 1/4 inches and 8.0 pounds!! As soon as we called out the right looking fish coming across the live scope screen, the planer board raced backward! We stayed on a small pod of fish on the east side of the camp Perry firing range, catching mostly 5+ pound walleyes. Bandits ruled the day at 30’ to 60’ foot back. Color didn’t seem to matter. The 2 of us Caught approximately 20 fish +/- a couple, throwing back the larger females. Sunday was more of the same fish and same program, just in another spot. I have the 23rd and 24th of this month available yet.
