More Hot Fishing

[Dr.Ed]

If you have no ice in the early spring how soon do you launch? I assume you have to wait for the docks. Do you start your walleye fishing out of Vermilion or are you farther west. I start at Catawba as soon as the ramp is open. I have caught fish in Feb but that was rare. Fogging my 150 E-tec is a simple 2 minute procedure and it can be reversed with the turn of a key. In the meantime with the water temp at 53 and the Conneaut harbor area teaming with dynamic trout, my boat sits on a trailer a couple of miles from the ramp and we can go at a moments notice.

We only fish out of Vermilion and have to wait till the docks go in, but the marina usually splashes our boat on the same day the docks get splashed.
That is around early April each year and the way most yards work.
Our boat doubles as the fishing machine and weekend cottage
