Lake Erie Sunrise Walleye Limit

An incredible mid-August charter and exactly the kind of Western Basin walleye fishing that keeps anglers smiling all the way back to the dock!

?? **Sunday, August 16th Fishing Report - Family, Fish, and Fun on Erie!** ?? Earlier this summer, Andy and his son Drew were scheduled to fish with me while traveling home from a baseball tournament in Cooperstown. Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans and a weather delay forced us to reschedule. Fast forward to mid-August, and Andy made the trip back, bringing along his brother Larry and nephew Joe for a great day on Lake Erie! ☀️? This crew may be seasoned anglers, with plenty of experience chasing salmon on Lake Michigan and targeting walleye and other species in Canada, but fishing Erie with offshore inline planer boards wasn't really part of their playbook. Today turned into a fun learning experience as we worked through the spread, covering the ins and outs of Offshore boards, Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TrueTrip 50s, and Dipsy Divers. ?? We picked up right where we left off yesterday and headed back to the Roller Coasters, where a beautiful grade of fish was waiting for us. ?? ? **Today's top producers:** ✅ Berkley Fishing Flicker Minnow 11s, 70' back with 3 oz weights ✅ TrueTrip 50s, 50' back pulling crawler harnesses ✅ Dipsy Divers on a #3 setting, 60' back with crawler harnesses The rods stayed busy and the crew quickly got comfortable with some new techniques while stacking a very respectable cooler of Erie gold! ?? With a Squall Watch posted and a great catch already in the box, we decided to call it an early success and head for the dock. Safety first! ⛈️⚓ Now it's time for those fresh walleye fillets to make their way to Bayside Provisions for some of their outstanding fish coating and batter mix. Nothing beats fresh Lake Erie walleye on the dinner table! ??️ Thanks again, Andy, Drew, Larry, and Joe! It was an absolute pleasure fishing with you all and sharing some new techniques. We hope to see you back aboard soon! ?? #BlackwaterDogsCharters #LakeErieWalleye #FamilyFishing #LakeErieFishing #WalleyeFishing #OhioFishing #ErieGold #BigWaterSmallBoards #OffshorePlanerBoards #TrueTrip50 #DipsyDiver #BerkleyFlickerMinnow #FishingReport #LimitChasing #WalleyeHunter #FishingMemories #BlackH2oDog #CooperstownToLakeErie #BaysideProvisions #FishOn ???☀️

? BlackH2oDog Charters Fishing Report First-timers on Lake Erie and first-timers in the boat with BlackH2oDog Charters ! Maria and Oscar left West Harbor just after sunrise, and we pointed the bow east in search of Lake Erie Walleye. ?? Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TruTrip 50s earned today's hardware ?, running 43' and 45' back with crawler harnesses. The fish definitely showed a preference for butterfly blades over Colorados, while BADMO LURES small gold tandem blades put a few more quality walleyes in the box. On the Dipsey Divers, a #3 setting running 47' and 58' back produced on both a J9 and harness presentation. The Off Shore Tackle Company OR-12 planer boards were a key part of the program. The hottest setup was a J9 running 20/50 with a 3 oz Guppy Weight, consistently finding active fish. One thing we didn't mind seeing today? No sheephead and no white perch! ? The result was a great box of Lake Erie Walleye headed for the table, soon to be coated in local favorite Bayside Provisions Batter & Cracker Meal. Nothing beats fresh Erie walleye after a successful day on the water. Welcome to Lake Erie, Maria and Oscar. Thanks for trusting BlackH2oDog Charters to make your first Eriep experience one to remember! ?? #BlackH2oDogCharters #LakeErieWalleye #LakeErieFishing #WalleyeFishing #WestHarbor #FishingCharter #LimitChasing #BigFishTuffTackle #TruTrip50 #BADMOLures #OffShoreTackle #OR12PlanerBoards #CrawlerHarness #DipseyDiver #RapalaJ9 #FishingOhio #ErieEyes #WalleyeWeekend #SunriseFishing #BaysideProvisions
