Vermilion Walleye

[fishinislife2003]

The sandbar is in 36 feet of water on the south end and goes down to around 50ft on the north end. The sandbar is huge so you can check all the areas and see if there are fish in a certain spot but there are places that produce better than others. The sandbar goes all the way up to the Canadian border so you'll need a bigger boat or flat water if you plan on going up that far. No 17' aluminum boats please if you know what I mean. I've had very good luck every year on the sandbar and you can put in at Vermilion or Lorain and get there regularly quick. Just beware of the winds. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. I am guessing this sand bar is not that wide and you are able to get over the top of it correct? Ive seen it on contour map by Freebie and it looks like there is deep water outisde and insdie it so I assume the top is under water a ways?

The shallowest this Sandbar is is about 36 feet. No problems.

The sandbar is huge and covers a-lot of miles. Depth's run in 40's to 50's- so you dont have to worry about running aground. Sound like the fishing of Beaver has been pretty good- I will start there tomorrow

Started off Beaver- pulled one. Was thinking about the Sandbar however a budy told me they were doing good of the castle, just a little deeper. Made the change up and pulled 2 tickets - 35lbs dropped off at the cleaning house. We drifted harnesses in 32' - went through a-lot of bait and also had a few shorts that was really nice to see.

We also had a few jacks in the mix- 17"- nice to see some smaller fish, hope for the future.

Will be there again this weekend- hopefully we will get a few more weeks in close.

That is our 8th limit for the year.

Got out late this morning after getting off work. Went to the southeast edge of the sandbar. Picked up some decent sized eyes ,and not to many junk fish. Heading back out friday evening, any one else doing good out that way.
