Are the walleye still hitting out of walnut gonna try to get up Saturday hope it works let
Didn't make it out this weekend, Boat developed a leak and discovered it was the ujoint bellow. Took 2 days to fix.
I was in the Walnut marina today only to make sure everything worked. Couple boats coming off the lake said 5 footers out there. Didn't hear any fish reports.
Hey skinny, it's always something with a boat at least its fixed.the weather isn't cooperating much this year either
Must have been the weekend for issues. I had to replace the cable from my sonar to dsm, my trailer winch broke too. However, it could have been worse- I towed a trophy pro back into walnut after his steering broke right outside the channel.
Good job Shedidntno, no better feeling then fellow fisherman helping each other out. I was broke down over by the Ohio line for 10 hours in June with no other boats around.
At the rate I'm going this year I will have a 40 year old (brand new boat). June we needed batteries, starter, alternator, radio, antenna, September needed bellows, gimbal bearing, shifter cable. Almost brand new boat lol
We fished sat and went nw to 65', fished from 8:00 to 2:00 and landed 17 eyes and two steel, lost alot at the boat, on sun we went a little more west but still hung in the 65-70' range, landed 19 eyes and one steel. lots of boats, lots of fish and some idiot also, I had to hand line my board line to keep from being run over as a guy cut between me and another boat. others I had talked to cought limits, We just had a great time on the boat. Good luck if you go
Nice going. I'm pulling walleye out of Conneaut in the same depth. What presentation is working for you? Also getting steelhead off downriggers 60' down on Shrimp Contender spoons.
Was pulling dipsy with renowski on 1 @ 90 and 3 @140, riggers with spoons at 46 - 50, On the boards was lead core 5,6,7 color also mono and braid with 4 or 5 oz @ 50' than 150 and on the board clip, all with reefs and renowski, The new boat name is Reel overtime and Ill share info with anyone who will share forward, we are all there to catch fish and have fun, I had my wife, daughter, her friend, buddy Joe and his son, we had several triple and quad hook ups, It was like a circus at times but all had fun, no we did not catch limits, didn't need to and I even shared, gave a walleye filet to an older guy at the camp ground for his family's supper as he watched us clean them, Lake Erie is great, good luck to all and hope I can get up one more time.
Hey prime time thanks for the info we need more people sharing I'm hoping to get up this weekend and I'll post my report if I do
Primetime you using planer board releases with that leadcore
Yes, have a big board set-up and use the weldon release but with rubber bands to connect them to the line, depending on the day and waves its a red or light brown rubber band. we check often like every 20 min or so to make sure there is no junk dragging but with plugs, speed is usually at 2.0-2.4 and to fast for white bass.at least with running plugs it seams to be less junk, Our leadcore rods have 50' leaders and mono backing, so when you let them out all leader, leadcore, than another 50'-75'and clip to board line.
prime time were you using planer board releases with lead core
do you put different amount of lead on each pole or all the same
Hey jig are u heading up this weekend
yes lead is run on the boards, I have two rods with five color, one with six, and another with seven, they do run off boards well, also I try weight to be the same on each side of boat than change as needed so one side may run deeper.
Hey prime time, u run ur lead core all out and put ur rubber band on ur backing ?
yes, a five color set up is all colors out plus 50-75' and than hooked to the board, six is just going a little deeper and seven more, about five ft. per color.
Thanks for the info
Nope its going to be little to rough for or boat butcher given her couple more weeks and that will be it I think
Ya Friday looks best for the weekend but unfortunately I have to work
