Fairport / Mentor Walleye
Haven't seen much discussion on here about the walleye fishing in the Fairport Harbor / Mentor Lagoons area. We went out Friday morning and again Sunday morning. Action was slow. We used 30, 40, and Jumbo Jets with small stinger spoons. Also mixed in some dipsy's and crawler harnesses. On Friday, got one walleye in 52' on Jumbo/50 Jet and a blueberry muffin stinger. A few junk fish but no other walleye. According to the radio, the action was slow all over. Sunday was only slightly better. Marked lots of fish in 45'-53' range but no takers. Moved out to 61' and got a monster on dipsy set deep and nascar stinger. Moved back in to 45' and got another nice 'eye on 40 jet and blueberry muffin. Lots of sheephead and perch(!) while trolling. Again, the action on the radio was slow. I know "mum's the word" with charter boats, but any other recreational fisherman having any luck out of this area?

first ones out
your right, the bite sunday was slow. fished sat 43-52 caught 7. same area sun and only 3. One of the locals went out today for 8 hours in 70+ feet and got skunked. thats not a good sign. I suspect maybe. My fish report that I got says 65-72 ft theres solid marks. I will let you know how it goes. On the water sun, call "no problem" on 68. I launch out of HTP

try mentor
Good Luck, I'll be out wednesday. The charters are in 42 ft off mentor doing good. Don't know sizes or numbers but I know that they are all pulling harnesses. We only caught 2 on sun. My report was correct until previous sat. the charters were out in 65 or so but came back to fish on mentor. Good luck

tried Mentor
Went out for a couple hours on Friday evening in front of Mentor Lagoons. Brought in 6 walleye from 17 to 25 inches.
39 to 44 fow, dipsey 3 settings 95 ft back. Hit on 3 different color stingers. Bright flourecent to dark color, copper or silver back, it didn't matter.
Went Saturday night at same time with the same set up. 2 white bass and 5 sheephead. Not a walleye to be had. I think we were dragging a couple white bass on the lines for a while, not knowing.

Went out Saturday late morning to early afternoon. Lots of boats trolling in the Mentor Lagoons 40' area. Everyone seemed to be pulling fish, especially on worm harnesses off 40 jets. Didn't have crawlers, but did OK with spoons - orange seemed to be the hot color.
