I went out Sat 7:00 am to 1:30 pm. Boxed 3 with 1 throwback. It was legal but too small to keep. Got one perch off the down rigger 63 fow 58 ft down. A few silver bass and of coarse Mr. Sheephead. I found something interesting. We started out at 62 fow. It was 75.6 on the top. I put the downrigger down to 55 ft & the temp. Was 74.2. We trolled west from Pt. Abino to 68 ft. & put thd downrigger down to 64 ft. The temp there was 66 deg. I hit numerous cold spots intermittently.. Wanted to get out Sun. but you know how hard it is to get two nice days in a row on lake Erie

You guys looked pretty busy and it was a cluster at retrieval. Otherwise I would have stopped and said hey. And I had a boat full of kids myself. We did meet this spring at sbh perch fishing. It was raining. I believe it was you and ur partner with the wives.
Sheep masters lol. But kids never really care what's on the end of the line as long as its a fish lol.

It's almost hard to believe, 76 on top, and 74 degrees 55 feet down. I never would have imagined that. My guess is that is what happens when zebra mussels clear out the water like they have over the recent years?
Here is another interesting one:

Lake erie temperature, today it's 76, and that reading is taken from 30 foot depth.
So when you hit cold spots, did you register more fish on the finder?

Fishkiller, I was putting my boat in at the same dock as you were pulling away Sun. AM.. I wondered how you made out, I got 1 in the so. gap & gave it away after 3hrs. of fishing.

Sometimes we did see more fish going into and out of the cold spots. But not to extreme that it made a big difference. But it was hard to watch the poles, temperature gage, fishfinder and drive the boat at the same time. We did pull up a few times and the harnesses were striped. Afew times we had good solid hits - started bringing them in and then poof it was gone. They did feel like walleye head jerks. I've never heard about so many people droping fish this year that happened in the years past. ???

Joe, I had the same thing happen as you. Stripped harnesses or just the tails of worms nipped off. Weight of the fish there then poof, gone. I can only blame myself for that though. These eyes were hitting very light and swimming with the boat. I should have A: sharpened my hooks better. And B: added small treble stingers to the last hook and into the tail of the worm. Every eye we landed saturday was Barely hooked in the tip of the mouth with the last hook. Not one fish hit and was hooked solidly. Also none of the fish tripped the dipsys or riggers. I was running snubbers on everything, but also had everything set very light. Makes me wonder how long those fish were on? Cause everytime I would check the lines I had walleye on. The only time my lines popped was at the very start of trolling, both riggers popped within a minute of each other the first ten minutes of trolling. Both lines had good solid weight on them half way to the boat. Then gone. And what's with the small fish this year? I never used to get small and big fish mixed while trolling open water. Usually smaller fish would be in the shallows. By small fish I mean you have to question yourself about getting the ruler out to see if it's even legal and just end up throwing it back anyway. Lol
