The bite continues to be consistent now that the spawn is complete . The Walleyes are making their move to the summer waters , being on the move almost daily but we've managed to catch limits on a daily basis when the winds prevail for us to be out . Most of the fish we're catching now are from 4-6lbs with usually an 8-9lb mixed in on most days . We're fishing shoreline contours anywhere from 20'-35' of water pulling crankbaits behind Offshore Tackle Planer Boards . Hope to see you guys on the water this year !

The weather finally broke a little for the better this week. First tournament of the year is this Saturday. We were able to get out last couple days. The fish are getting ready for the spawning season. For us on Erie that means one thing the possibility of a true giant. The first trip didn't disappoint anchored by a true trophy 30 inch fish. Slow trolling p-10 crank baits was the key. The fishing should be incredible for the next 6 weeks

Reported 1 year ago
Perch is still going strong around the island area. Stickers and spreaders tipped with shinners are working. Walleyes are being caught from Cleveland west to islands. Trollingis the key right now. Stick baits and spoons are working. The catches are averaging 5 pounds. Walleyes are still moving west for the winter set. Night fishing is going on. Catching eyes based on the weather. It'll continue until ice

Fishing is pretty good, lots of big big wind, not fun lol. Water temp needs to go down a bunch for the really big fish to start chopping.

    Captain Bob went above and beyond trying to put us on some fish. Eventually we were able to pull some in. Not the mother load but a great time just the same! My 9 year old is now hooked (yes pun intended) on walleye fishing. Thanks, BJ, Beth, and Gus

    Sean was a super cool guy, really knows his stuff we caught our limit in August when other people were not. He has a very clean boat and nice equipment. Also does a heck of a job cleaning the fish for you. I highly recommend Sean.

    Larry was a great guide - put us on top of lots of Walleye. We got our 30 fish limit in 4 hours. The boat - Walleye Magnet - was awesome and perfectly set up to catch tons of keepers.
