New to Lake Erie. Most of my experience is with Salmon on Lake Michigan. Wondering if you guys have some advice on where to start. Its a big lake and any help is appreciated.

I was drifting in 37-45 fow from senca shoul bouy to the about first windmill I was drifting .08 to1.2 then I went to the south gap one guy had a nice eye going out tomorrow morning to try again I could use some tips if anybody has any I don't know what im doing wrong I change speeds lures depths or is that walleye fishing thx
I spent the morning (6:30 AM to Noon) bottom bouncing in front of Smokes Creek/Windmill area. Boated 5 Walleyes and 2 Perch. Water was off color from recent rain/wind and wind was out of the North. Nice drift early but by midday it was too slow for my liking. The fish were in the off color water and I used Chartreuse harnesses for a little more visibility. 37 fow was my best depth but I did get 2 between 35 fow and 36 fow. Surface water temp. 62*.

Do those work here at all? Could also do a ride along if you need some help or extra lines....i would pick up gas. Spent 10 years fishing lake michigan and it took 5 to figure it out, would like to quicken the learning curve.Quote:
