how is fishing in buffalo

[captainjoe]

Anybody have any luck closer to Buffalo? I am heading out in the AM Monday. I will check back here tomorrow before I leave.

Thanks,

Matt

I was thinking the same thing. We haven't heard from Milt or Joe's Spot in while?????? And others????

Forgot to mention . We went out of Dunkirk in Eddie's boat. Off Perina 98 - 105 ft of water. Got 10 big ones. Lost a few also. Nice day to be out.

Finally got out today for some eye's and got my limit. Fished between Cat and Dunkirk in 73 fow. The screen was loaded non stop. All the fish I got were 3-4 lbs. No monsters but good eaters. All were hugging the bottom. I just ran 2 riggers deep and popped um every once in a while. Black/purple and hot pink harnesses. Hope to get back out tomorrow. Time for a redneck surf and turf....venison steak and nice walleye fillet....Good Luck.

Way to go! Congrats! You gotta be pumped.

Thanks CaptainJoe.....yes I am pumped. All I know is that, I'm going to have to learn more about the lead line or get electric riggers one of these days cause hand cranking those riggers is getting old quick...lol. Had a rookie out with me yesterday so it was an adventure letting him drive while I took care of lines. Keeping a boat straight is sure hard for some folks...lol.

Does the walleye fishing out of SP/Catt/Dun/Bar remain fairly good through September and October? Is any port traditionally better as the water starts to cool?

[Lerie]

Sparrow - Traditionally the walleye fishing stays good thru the end of September until the Eastern Basin gets that one big blow that seems to make the lake all one temperature. Once that happens, the fishing is a bit more difficult due to the fish being spread out thru the water column. Years ago I was catching walleye after the blow with 109 feet of cable out on the riggers. Bottom line - walleye are still catchable in the Fall, just a bit difficult to pinpoint where they are at in the water column.
