The walleye fishing continues to be on fire in the Geneva State Park area. We been limiting out every trip with fish between 20-24" along with some real hogs mixed in. Come up and get in on the action before it's too late.

Father and son day fishing
Father and son day fishing
Jul 22, 2025 Geneva-on-the-Lake
I had the pleasure of taking a father and his son out for a adventure they'll never forget. The day started out a little on the choppy side with 2-3' waves out of the northeast but we strapped in and headed north. 15 miles later we set down and started, what I would call, a beat down on some really good quality walleye. The fish didn't cooperate at first but after a move further north the onslaught began. We started out only keeping 20" fish but quickly changed our goal to 23" fish. We probably released 25-30 fish in the 17-20" bracket. 18 jumbo walleye remained in the box anchored by a solid 281/4 fish Ohio caught by a little guy named Henry. Before we limit out we were releasing 25" lake Erie walleye. Definitely a text book day.

The walleye fishing is in full swing now. Limits can be caught trolling and jigging right now. The fish are still in close so there's no long boat ride to the fishing grounds. The drift fishing is what most of my customers are requesting to do. Its very fun and more like your actually fish. We have caught 5 fish Ohio's and numbouis fish in the 25-27" range in the last couple of weeks. The troll bite is going strong too with good limits of 18-21" inchers being caught daliy.

The weather was a little cool but the walleye cooperated with our offerings,lol! We started off trolling spoons with very good success, caught and released about 20 walleye. Then we finished the day drift fishing. The bite wasn't as good as trolling but caught a better class of fish, including a 25" walleye. The guys had a great time and are planning to return later on this summer.

Drift fishing is on fire right now. We have been pulling limits of really nice fish for the last two weeks. They're in close right now. If you like to drift fish, nows the time to book your trip before they move out.
