Went out Wednesday and got 2 man limit 00 to 03 line Northwest (330 degrees) from Lake Shore Park. Took 3 and a half hours. Went out to same spot on Thursday and could not get them turned on. Ended up with 4 eyes in the box and 6 perch. Also caught a mess of sheephead and other junk fish. Lake was calm in morning but got rough as the day went on. Got a call from one of my relatives this morning. He also went out of Ashtabula on Thursday but went Northeast and they got three man limit. Them fish moved east in less than 24 hours! He said they fought the waves on the ride back in but with 18 walleye in the box, it was worth it. Dipsy divers and harnesses plus a mix of spoons were the ticket. Various colors but he said they caught fish on anything they put out. Good luck fishing!
