Conneaut walleye

[Dr.Ed]

I'm sure that spoon has a name but I couldn't find it. Anyway, I am not suicidal but I went chasing the fish this AM. Jack at Snug Harbor told me the walleye had moved in and I should start at the 04.5N line and he was right. I had 4 fish in the first 30 minutes and then the wind really picked up. In describing the lake conditions as I approached the 06N, the old nautical word "gnarly" comes to mind. White water everywhere and 3 to 5 footers with an occasional 6 and 7. The wind was 20 plus. Mother Nature can be testy at times so I apologized for bothering her and turned the Holly Lucas toward the marina. It was a fun 50 minute boat ride and there will be other days.

That spoon might be called "Confusion", ''Mass Confusion" or "Balls of Confusion"....

Very confusing-----pun intended....

No fishing for me this weekend. Might be back up mid next week. Friend of mine bought a boat docked in geneva. Might go out with him.

Hitting Conneaut tomorrow morning looking for walleye. I see them on my sonar just north of both perch packs but all I am getting is white bass no matter what the presentation. Is anybody catching eyes and if so, would you care to share what is working for you? If not, I have seen steelhead rolling and may change my targets. Ch. 14 to share....

Thanks for the info. Caught walleye today at the 06N and 35W-32W in 72 FOW on shallow cranks off Dipsies without O rings back 234' to 270' going 1.9 mph. Dragging sticks with in line weights got me nothing but zebras. Best fish today was 29 1/2 inches topping the scales at 9 lb that hit a shallow diving RR in rainbow trout color back 234'. Walleye are there. You just have to work for them.
