Stingers, small and large in Monkey Puke and chicken wing and copper watermelon that's all I tried. Speed 2 to 3mph was all hitting. Drifted for fun after that and picked up several more(all threw back healthy) on bottom bounces and harness as well as Erie Deary plus a bunch of catfish. Actually caught larger fish in the 20"+ range drifting vs. Trolling. There are fish everywhere and you don't have to burn a bunch of gas to find them. We've been hitting them from Lorain to Vermilion to Huron regularly from shallow to 42FOW. Gonna switch over to Cleveland area next weekend I think for bigger class of fish.
Nice report.
