what area were you fishing
We have had the best season we have ever had catching Walleye every time we go out in my $850 craigslist boat.....including last Saturday morning when we caught 8 from 18in to 28in. Using a Humminbird 998ci SI, Berts custom tackle trees rod holders, tracks, Church's walleye boards and our own custom worm harnesses with either #5 & #6 Silver Streak Spinners and #2 octopus hook and #6 Gamakatsu #6 round bronze treble hook In 38-42fow behind the windmills. Trolling at .7 to 1.4mph. I attribute our success to the Learning charter we took in May down in Ohio with Bigwaterfishing and Capt Ross Robertson (google both for more info) Ross is the co-Author of the book "Walleye Trolling" and does TV shows, contributes to infisherman and field and stream. Ross's charters have caught about 1000 walleye on lake Erie since Feb of this year including nearly 400 in just one week. He is the Walleye Slayer! Everything he showed us is in his book and well worth the price. I am working with a local tackle shop to get some of Ross's books and maybe Ross himself to do a Q&A session locally.
Hey Fishkiller, thanks for the tips ! I got my brother and nephew out for a short time today, and we caught a few real nice fish. Thanks Again !
Any time we went 21 for 24 today with 1 at 9#.
Happy 4 the everyone. :)
happy 4th to you all
Trolled for six hours this am, picked up two along the fence. Both 6# , heard worm harnesses had better day, Lil rough out there for us.
It was rough for many yesterday.
And it looks like it's gonna be rough for the next several days. Maybe Thursday will be the next fishable day.:rolleyes:
fished Saturday because it was the only day I could go. Limited out on nice fish in 53 -56 FOW out near the international line in front of the Wind Mills. All fish were near the bottom and most were caught with the #1 dipsy on the #3 setting , no ring, back 178'- 200'. Did not matter what color harness. Got a few with the # 1.5 setting on the dipsy also. Set 130' back. Hope this helps.
I fished Saturday from Seneca to Meyers in 50-52 foot of water. I used alot of info from here as I have not been out this year (working in New Mexico) and shot home for the holiday weekend. Ran big dipsies on a 2-3 setting 90 foot back - took a couple hours to figure them out but managed 5 fish, not too bad as we only fished till 11:00 as my son and partner had to work at 1:00. Wanted to get out Sunday again but the lady had other ideas with that wind. Thanks for the info everyone - I hope my post might help someone else out.
