Trip Summary

Rare summer day off on July 4th. Left Cleveland at 6am, headed west to the Islands and set up off the islands weather bouy around 8:45 am. Had my 6 on Ice by 9:30. Went with 25 plus year old Hot N Tots on Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TruTrip 50s 22 back. Rapala J7s 28 back Dipsey 3 setting. In the catch and release period the BADMO LURES Arrowhead spoons took as many Walleye as the Hot n Tots. Played catch and release for an hour then headed to the beach for a hull scrubbing. Thanks Dubbert's Outdrive for the holiday assistance on Yamaha Outboards Ring Free. Speed was 2.4 to 2.8 mph. #BlackH2oDog #july4th #lakeeriewalleye #cedarpoint #fireworks #beaches

Fall Brawl Walleye
Fall Brawl Walleye

Ron wanted his son Patrick to have an opportunity for some Lake Erie Walleye. They headed East from Indiana to join me in Cleveland. We fished North of 72nd street. We had almost non-stop action with Reef Runner Tackle Company 900s behind Off Shore Tackle Company inline planner boards. Bandits did their share of the work as well. All stock colors today with the exception of the BlackH2oDog custom. Dipsey 3 setting with Rapala J7s. Ripplin Redfins 30 back on Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TruTrip 50s. This crew tossed back fish for several hours after our limits and they learned to use Offshore Tackle planner boards. Best leads were 25 to 40 at 2.3 to 2.5 mph. #BlackH2oDog #charterfishing #fishingbooker #FallBrawl #walleyeslam #brawlboardmeeting #Cleveland #offshoretackle

Casting for Lake Erie Walleye
Casting for Lake Erie Walleye
September 20, 2025
Jeff and Dennis were back again today for another shot at Lake Erie Walleye. With the predicted 15 to 20 mph winds ?? we opted to do a Walleye Perch combo. The perch report is simple nothing going off of the Rattles. So we put the casting harnesses to work in 6 to 20 fow. For a strong 1 plus hours it was non-stop Catfish 3 to 6 pounds. Then the Walleye heated up and they picked away until the had 2 - 2 day limits of Walleye heading back to Iowa. We were within site of the Ship the entire day. Great two days sharing Drift and Cast and open water trolling on Lake Erie. #BlackH2oDog #marblehead #letsgofishing #cedarpoint #charterfishing #portclinton #lakeeriewalleye #sandusky

We had 2 ? setups, the Dipsey 3 setting with Orange FJ7s 90 back and TruTrip 50s 50 and 60 back with butterfly blade harness. FJ7 took a Fish Ohio and a fry from this year. Close second was Bandit with Off Shore Tackle Company 2oz Guppy weight 105 back behind OR-12 inline planner board. We left at 7am and were done at 11, let these guys practice with the Offshore gear a little more after we all reeled our share. Nice cooler of Eyes headed back to Iowa. #BlackH2oDog #cedarpoint #marblehead #portclinton #Sandusky #letsgofishing #charterfishing #buckeyes
