Fresh Safe Harbor Lakefront Fishing Reports

It was a beautiful evening on the water we ended with 14 but the trip was cut a little short by thunderstorms that popped up near the end of the trip

Headed out from Port Clinton friday evening and ran about 10 miles just west of south bass island. I was running harnesses and I had a hard time getting all lines out as i was setting my 3rd line 1 and 2 went off both were white bass. This trend was constant but no walleye and finally got all lines in the water. Trolled around for a couple hours and only got 3 or 4 throw back walleye and a bunch of white bass and sheeps head. I made a move to between south bass and green island. Set lines and got our first keeper right off the bat. Then came more white bass, sheep head and throw back walleye. Turned our troll to the south and started catching a more decent size walleye. As the sun was starting to set everything stopped so we called it a day and ended with 7 walleye. This morning headed back out to where i had better reports of bigger walleye north of niagara reef. I ran harnesses and cranks. It was a little slow but pulled a couple nice walleye relatively early but we were plagued with under size walleye, white bass, a couple sheeps head, 3 nice cats and 3 decent perch. We ended with the 2 walleye and 3 perch. It was a busy couple days. If we were targeting white bass it would have been a great day but that was not the case
