Photo recap of The Ohio State University Lake Erie Sport Fishing class. My two students had full hands on experience catching Walleye and and several other species using the various methods BlackH2oDog Charters uses on Lake Erie. By the end of our time together they were setting and removing Off Shore Tackle Company planner boards using their full variety of clips and releases. They also learned about the divers we use like the Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TruTrip 40s and 50s. Including how to set and read the 40s on inline planner boards and the 50s on corner downloads. Dispsey Diver set as a high diver on a 3 setting outside of the TT 50s. Baits, BADMO LURES Arrowhead spoons, crawler harnesses with Arrowhead spinners 3.5 size. Rapala J7s, and Reef Runner Tackle Company Deep Lil Rippers. We ran the Lil Rippers with Offshore 2oz Guppy Snap weights 20/20 and 50/65. Speed was 1.9 to 2.1 mph So busy getting action shots, I have no pics of the Walleye limits we caught together. After our time on the water the had an afternoon of filleting their catch. I look forward to passing on our Great Lakes resource to future students. #OSU #ohioseagrant #lakeeriewalleye #lakeeriesportfishing #BlackH2oDog

Greg, Tom, Tony Jr fish with me a couple of times each season, this time Tony Sr joined the group. A bit of chilly start for June 1. We had a Nascar day, one big left turn around Kelley's Island. We started on SE corner and finished North of the State Park. We really had no marks that were worth turning back on. Off Shore Tackle Company OR-12s with Reef Runner Tackle Company Deep Lil Rippers 70 back 2oz. We ran 2 boards with BADMO LURES Arrowhead spoons behind Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co. TruTrip 40s 55 back. Dipsey 3 setting 36 to 45 back a d TruTrip 50s with J7s 30 to 50 back. Speed 2.1 to 2.3mph. Always a great time with this crew. #BlackH2oDog #lakeeriewalleye #kelleysisland #portclinton #walleye
