I have an uncle just diagnosed with cancer visiting from oregon. He has never caught a walleye and wants to catch one before he heads home to start chemo. I need some info on the vermilion area. Home water is the chagrin, but it's very slow this way yet. Got the gear, just need a hand on where to start, depth, location, speed and what ur all trolling that way. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I usually fish the western bason area. I will be going out of vermillion saturday. I hope to find the fish. PM me on sunday and i will give you some info. hop I can help.
I have caught 3 walleye out of cranberry between there and vermilion. i have marked lots of fish in about 25 fow. caught two on a purple and gold colorado blade crwler harness. one an eriedescent reef runner. I hear that crawler harness are supposed to be the best right now. If you go east out of vermilion maybe try a little deeper. It seems like the fish just won't bite yet.
I wish you the best of luck.
Last sat got three limits west of vermillion at condos to cranberry creek...even some double headers!! caught on harnesses behind thirty diver jets 35 -52ft. back . water depth was 18-22ft. lots of nice siz fish biggest was 29''almost 8 1/2 #. excellent day fishing. found them then BAM!!! done. Hope you get on em..good luck to you and your uncle.
