We fished the same days, Friday was tough with the waves kicking up pretty good in the afternoon. We managed to get 14 on Friday, 320 out of Lorain about 4.5 miles. Most came on big dipsys, 3 setting, 125 - 130 back, basically scraping them off the bottom in 45 FOW. Chicken wing stingers, silver with blue tape mag NK's, a couple on X raps and reef runners with blue, green, and orange.
Saturday was a little better, had six people on the boat, managed to get 17 on the same program as Friday. Had to weed through tons of sheep & white bass to get to the walleye, busy day.
Sunday was a great day on the water. We only had four on the boat, didn't get on the lake until 8 and picked up 24 by 3:00. For every walleye, we caught at least 5 white bass & sheephead. Most of the day was like a fire fight, non stop action, couldn't keep the rods in the water. Most walleyes came off the boards, jet 40's, 150 back, chicken wing, gold & orange, & clark kent stingers, Rapala X-raps, blue with orange belly, black and gold shad raps. Picked up some on big dipsy's, 3 setting 125 back, 2 setting 100 back.
Fished the same area all days, best speed was 2.2 - 2.4 when we could keep it there, Friday was tough to keep the speed right. Most fish were in the 2.5 - 5 pound size, with a couple fish Ohio, 29 inches, 9#'s.
Sunday the lake and weather were beautiful, nicest day on the lake this year for us. |
I'd rather be Fishing! |
