Limits of Fish 7–8 Miles South

Fall Bite is ON!! Quick limits once we found them! Sent Daniel and Yvette back to Chicagoland with 3 gallons of nice fillets to cap off a Gorgeous day on Lake Erie! Started out E. of Kelley’s in shallow water. After very little activity other than a nice smallmouth we headed East until we liked what was on our sonar. Flicker Minnows both high and low in the water column took our fish; 45’ behind our Offshore planer boards and 110’ back with an added 2oz weight. Capt. Jim is entered into all 3 Fall walleye derby’s and welcomes those who want to participate. (You must already be entered) Open dates for ALL from now until the end of the year. Contact me for details.

Fall weather is here, and it was an awesome day to be back on the water! The nice thing about the islands area is that regardless of a strong NE wind, we can almost always find a protected spot and still catch fish. I had the pleasure today of taking Oen and his dad, Paul, out this afternoon. The fishing was like a coaster ride in reverse. It was down, then UP! Spot #2 was quite a fire drill starting out. After a slowdown, Oen got us back on track by picking out a Purple Flicker Minnow, which then landed perhaps the biggest fish of the trip. We ran Flicker Minnows 10-45’ back behind our boards today. Beautiful sunset tonight to end the trip.

Still Catching! Had to stray away from our recent hot spot we’ve been fishing. Only a couple nice walleyes to show for and a big smallie that came loose on an acrobatic move. Went on a 15 mile long search that landed us in 10-18’ of water near Huron. It was steadily busy thereafter for the remaining 2 hours of the morning trip and again for the afternoon party. Plenty of walleyes for everyone to have a big fish fry and a few monster Cats and Sheepies to keep everyone on their toes!
