Thanks to all. I didn't make it up until about 1pm Saturday (drove from south of Dayton thru major snowstorm). Ended up moving about 4 times Saturday and finally over to the coordinates that were...

I hope you scared the sh*t out of those guys going thru your stuff. That is unreal. What were they doing? Stealing? I wouldn't stand for that. These are the type of people that give all...

Coming up from South of Dayton area for the first time this year. Slayed em last year so hoping for another great year. Please add me to the group text and I'll be sure to share info as well. Are...

Thanks for the replies - I too usually fish this time of year around the small islands bet. Green and Rattlesnake or up near West reef as well as the usual over by NW of Kelly's close to the boarder....

Haven't been to Erie yet this year - usually I've been 4 times but due to the weather and gas prices driving from south of Dayton... This time of year I'm usually fishing N (NW or NE) of Kellys...

Thanks for the info. Were you using any inline weights for the 35, 45 and 65 leads while trolling or just deep reef runners?

I have an outstanding 2.5hp Suzuki - barely used. Worked perfectly on my Crestliner (17.5') for trolling. Barely uses any fuel. I sold my Crestliner and now want a larger motor for a jon boat up...

Yea, I like to fish over North and NW of North Bass - maybe that is still good - anyone fished over there recently? Also, are you referring to the Green Can as the can just N of Kelly's Shoal?

how far east of Kelly's you going? To the 34/35 line?

I've definitely been in 5-7 footers in my 17' boat. It's not advisable and I had to play the throttle to make it back safely. So, yesterday, fishing out 20 miles, I'd guess we had 2-3's... Was...

Glad to hear they got some fish. I made it out Sat evening and only managed 3 walleye and then 6 Sunday from 6am - 1pm. It seemed to be hit or miss with alot of boats. Did you troll or cast?

Hey PB,

I was out there Sat/Sun. Didn't make it out til about 5pm Sat though and headed out on the NE side of Kelly's - marked tons of fish but only managed 3. On Sun, went East of Kelly's to...

I'm heading up tomorrow and fishing Sat/Sun. I'm heading EAst of Kelly's and looking there. Water temps are way up already so fish should be moving to deeper water. I'd say East and NE of Kelly's.

Did you see the other post where they were catching about 2 miles NE or where are fishing? 10 counts - walleye all suspended. You should see boats out a little farther North and East - try casting...

Hey Erie Son - I'm bringing my 2 uncles up to fish and was planning on trying the East side of Kelly's. Were you casting due North of Kelly's Island Shoal or were you more North and East of that? ...

I have fished the last 5 years out of my 17' Crestliner. I've been in 5+ footers, which wasn't fun and kinda scary but managed. If you just bounce along properly you'll be fine. Gotta take it slow...

Gloomis - did you limit out over near Kellys or were you fishing West of the other islands (over by Rattlesnake)? Trolling these Tru-Tips, were you putting your spoons about 15' deep or so? I'm...

Hey Mastroller - I'm heading up Sat/Sun bringing my dad as he hasn't fished in about 20 years. Anyway, I usually fish over by Middle Island but will try over closer to Ballast - what water depth...

Hey Rebel-1 - Were you casting weight forwards or just worm harnesses for your 10 count? Also, what size weight? I'm heading back up taking my Dad this upcoming Sat/Sun and want to make sure I get...

Instead of cutting the throat and throwing in 5 gal bucket, just take a pair of wire snips and when putting in your livewell, snip one of the gills and drop in your livewell. They will bleed out in...

I'd say by far the most used are Reef Runners - Little Rippers seem to be a great choice...

Hey Gloomis - I plan on trolling wherever the fish are of course! ha ha. My boat is docked over in the East Harbor area so I will probably troll North of Kellys in the 35-40ft water range. If I...

Lots of great info here guys. I do troll using worm harnesses unless there is a good drift (which I prefer like others to feel the bite, give a little and bam set the hook). However, I don't think...

Forgot to ask: Do you solely use Michigan Stinger spoons or other? I see lots of trolling spoons on ebay - Lots by "Lake Erie Walleye Candy" and other trolling flutter spoons.

So you guys have 6-8 rods, all with line counter reels to know how far back your spoons are running behind the boards? I only have 1 counter reel - I just guess on the others (I'm a bow hunter so...
