Trip Summary

The large fish have moved off shore, and we are having good success with Fish Ohio sized walleye and steelhead. Fish are very active in 69-72' of water, and are hitting most often right above the thermocline which is currently set up around 53'. It's a bit of a boat ride running 15-20 miles offshore, and my Viking 35' Sport Cruiser was built for off-shore fishing. If your interested in Trophy Fishing, now is the perfect time to go after them. Booking now for August and September trips - a few dates are still available in July.
