we picked up the majority of those fish in 104 - 109 fow. went back out wed (9-17) fished same area,plus deeper and into 70 fow picked up 6.a couple of 5lbers the rest 18 to 20 inchers.the fish were scattered,no pattern plus it was quite a blow 3-5 footers.hard to give good presentation.we really worked for them.also 95 ft and less perch were grabbing on constantly couldn't keep the lines in long.the water did get mixed after ike and i dont think it really settled yet a lot of debre flotting around.it should set back up soon .lot of good fishing ahead for those true walleye hunters.most of our fair weather fishermen are talking themselves out of the game.this is the time of year where you make the news instead of waiting to hear about it.will be back out there soon and will post.keep the faith.good fishing tom & john

Where are the walleye?
Finally got out this evening 9-19-08. The first spot we tried i caught a bass, the second spot my bud caught a large sheep head, the third spot we tried my other partner caught a nice walleye before it got dark. We used worm harnesses, colors greenist, silver&red and copper. the walleye was caught at the round house drift. The water was like glass. Still no limit. may try again tomorrow. Where are the walleye?

No Walleye
I went out today in the am. Left Sturgeon Pt. and went 3 mi west. There was a strong wind coming form the south. I was running into rollers all the way. I started trolling west then towards the microwave then towards Evans Bar. Nothing - it finally calmed down a little. Not even a hit. Finished with the same worms I started with. Anytime on the water is still a good time and beats work. BETTER days are coming!

Where are the walleye?
Went out this morning, 9-25-08. started fishing around 9:00 AM. The water was perfect. Couldn`t ask for a better day to fish. But there was one problem, no walleye. I talked to a couple guys at the dock, no body caught any walleye. What`s going on? is it over? should i call it a year? Where are the walleye?

Where they Aren't
Tuesday I went out of the small boat harbor to the international marker buoy then trolled west for about 2 1/2 hours with an east wind at 5 kts. Waves about 1 foot but no walleye. Only one big sheephead.(42-50 fow).
Trolled back in a zig zag direction until noon. Nada ! I am thinking that as the water gets cooler, the fish will come in. When they do I'll be there. Small boat harbor will close for the season on Oct 15th.
Anybody know where can I launch later on in the year ?

Where are the walleye?
We tried it again this morning. Left Grand Island dock, made a couple stops on the way to Meyers reef. No walleye. Don`t know how many miles we traveled, but it`s a good distance. Water was nice , just a little ripple, could go full bore if i wanted. But the farther out or the closer we got to the reef the more bumpy. Made a couple drifts before the white caps ran us out. So on the way in we stopped at the round house drift. Tough fishing with a Northeast wind. The wind was blowing us toward the Canadien shore. I had one bite all morning, my fishing partner cought a nice small mouth. We were using worm harnesses ( green & cooper ). Where are the walleye?

We went out a couple times this week. There are plenty of large fish suspended down 20 to 40 feet. Tried plugs, harnesses and boards. Nothing, not even a bass.No big fish on the bottom either. The thermocline is now at 50 feet in many places. One fellow limited out on perch with emeralds he picked up in the Niagara River and brought out into the lake. I used golden shiners for 25 perch one afternoon. The only walleye I know of being taken were off Center Road on harnesses and dipseys.

Last Tues I was out around the int'l marker buoy trolling toward Sturgeon Point in 45 fow with harnesses (2 lines out) and nothing, not even a sheephead.
I'm gonna try to get out before Wednesday which is the last day that the small boat harbor launch ramp will be open for the season (Oct 15).
