Fairport / Mentor Walleye

[First One's Out]

Very slow day yesterday. Fished from 5am - 11am in 64'-68' North of Perry power plant. Lost one 'eye near the boat, but other than that nothing but white bass and perch. Heard a few guys had minimal success in 70+ but most people I talked to said the bite was SLOW.

[First One's Out]

Got out Tuesday evening/night and again this morning. On Tuesday, there was a large school of walleye in 69'-70' NW out of the harbor. Trolled West, got a couple on 50 jets and small stingers - blueberry muffin and blonde muffin. This morning, could not find the fish in the same area. Talked to some people who were further East in 70' and not having any luck. Finally, moved out to 74' and the action heated up (trusty 50 jet and blonde muffin was the best combo). Lots of marks toward the bottom and 20-30' down - possibly steelhead. There were two other boats near me, and was told they got a couple on superman stinger spoons on dipsys (3-setting, 180 back). Looks like the 'eyes are moving deeper. All in all, an absolutely gorgeous day on the lake and a few nice fish (see braggin' board). Gonna be back out on Sunday if anyone wants to hit me up on Ch. 68.

Marked lots of fish early this morning @ 68' due north of Mentor Lagoons.

Continued trolling north 7:30 - 10am, Lots of fish showing at 50' - 60'. Ran dipsys @ 2 and 3 160' and 180' - 200' back. Tried yellow, green, blue colors and a green/orange rapala on the downrigger.

Landed one sheephead, wind kicked up out of the SW and decided to go home early.

This is my first summer out, must be missing some details.
