recent walleye action

[gregnwtf]

A little rough on Friday with rain and East winds, had a new group from Minnesota and Wisc. Drifted for half day and trolled the other half. Saturday and Sunday trolled for customer limits with steady action. Jets n spoons, 50 to 70ft. #1 dipsey 35-38 and 50-52ft. Jagerbomb and the UV spoons and Plucked Chicken spoons. 2.2-2.5 speed. Of course the standard sorting of white bass, sheeps and more whitebass. Best thing is to stay away from large groups of boats and find your own fish and then figure out what they want. Lot a mayfly type action for over a week, lets see if we get another hatch this week. Water temps in the low 70s range (72-73). Lots of fish in diff areas, some close in, some far out some just off the islands. White bass as big as 16 inches. Walleye size from 9 inch to 27 inch range between 3 boats this week. Thru back several 9-10 inch walleye of the 2013 hatch ! Several walleye in the 14-15" range from 2012 class went back also.

Nice fishing out of Geneva on boat #2. Limits and near limits of big walleye. Wallhanger class fish taken daily. Daily average recently of 10 to 20 Fish Ohio walleye and boxing 25 to 42 walleye per day. Wire line and long minnow baits doing the catching.
July bite has been spotty ok to good for casting and decent trolling. Spots are Rattlesnake, Green and deeper water around the fire range, west of north bass and Canadian waters giving up nice fish on the days the wind blows alittle and trolling in Canada waters has been pretty good also. Trolling jets n spoons or crankbaits working.

Central basin fishing action has been hot. I fished Sat n Sunday with limits both days. Sundays box had two going to the taxidermist. Saturday was high waves and decent action of walleye. Long ways offshore using big stickbaits. Deep clear waters and get the lures down 50-55 feet. 74 to the bottom. Water temp 67. Weekdays have a few openings in Geneva for walleye. Average fish in the mid upper 20s with great shot at some over 30 inch and these fish have big girth and great color. Good for mounting size. Wire line, big baits 300-350 ft back of the boat.
