but, I got a 6 man limit of walleye in just under two hrs. on the southern tip of Point Pelee Wednesday. Just a mention of course if things are drying up over there. Pulled meat on the bottom with harnesses and ran 1.8 mph. The action there has been steady, furious and crazy busy.We didn't even: have time to even mow down a sandwich and a refreshment.lol :D
But a run well worth it!:DQuote:

don't get mixed up with Pelee Is and Pt Pelee National Park point, I think you were fishing the point as those fish are quite small, some large ones in the mix,
I don't like leaving fish looking for fish, I just upgrade size as we go, its getting late summer and be grateful what the lake has to offer, tasty morsels that won't cause you to glow in the dark. lol
The only draw back of having to make the run, its hard on the ole body even in my 285 Pursuit in rough seas. You need experienced hands on board to help you out when you are in rough water too, also when there are smaller fish its hard to distinguish what the heck, and when the heck you are dragging trash or having a small eye on.
I've got an eager crew wanting to hit the water today, I'll wait until lunch to make that call after the front moves through, don't want to get unlucky and experience a water spout. I already had my dose of that crap a month ago when I hit the heart of a very strong cell out there trying to get in. Took me 6 miles down the lake out of respect.
I fished in 33ft one mile west of the point and about two miles back north of the extreme tip, don't have nos. but there one heck of a huge bunch of fish all along there. You fished east of the north tip of Pelee Island?
was on the other corner three weeks ago and there was many there but couldn't get'em to go in that hot humid weather we had.
They've likely have made that turn out of the Western basin and heading for cooler waters. How close were you to the lighthouse between Pelee Is and Pt Pelee?
What was your set up?
thanks, Tom.
I was fishing almost exactly where you were the last time out. We had 6 keepers in 15 minutes and 10 in 30 minutes. Crazy fishing. We have done very well straight East of the Island this time of year as well, however, I have not ventured out there in a while. In the past, we did very well, with lots of fish over 5 lbs. Just curious if you may have stopped to try it along the way. I am launching from Leamington, so it is only 3-4 miles to the spot you are talking about. I live in MI and trailer my boat over the bridge to the CAN side.
Thanks again.
