Where are the Walleye?

[jimski2]

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.

Have anybody caught any walleye lately? if so when and where? It`s been a couple weeks since i`ve been out.

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).

Went out yesterday 10-23-08. Hit the water around 3:30 pm. Tried out by the round house, nothing but a couple of gobys. Could not drift because of the North wind, it kept blowing us inland. Tried another spot by the Rail road bridge, caught two nice bass. The windmills were turnning but the lake was perfect for fishing. Where are the walleye? Mite try again tomorrow.

Tried it again, 10-24-08. Same results, no walleye. We went back out by the round house. The wind was coming out of the south , which made drifting much better than yesterday. Still no walleye, nothing not even a goby. The lake i`d say was 1 to 3 footers, as time went on white caps were building. left that spot, stopped at the rail road bridge, one bass caught on chub. Thats it. Heard from a little birdie, a week or so ago, they ( walleye ) was hitting good for a day or so. Can`t prove it by me. I`m always a dollar short and a day late. Where are the walleye?
