Hope your not implying I am anything like the Wacker!!! I encourage all my clients to release females!! And I only post honest reports. When i fish w/ my wife and son for fun we only keep enough for dinner. Im not bragging about today by anymeans im just giving the report as it was on FAST ACTION
PORT HARBOR, OH WILD WINGS MARINA
Does anyone use the white w/ tinsel jigs? I have better luck with them than any other color. Any thoughts?
Heavens no. We are still cracking on that goofball that could do no wrong. I think he provided us with amusement for the entire summer. I think it is great to encourage the release of females. It is examplary for captains to encourage clients to do so. I don't think anyone feels you are braggin. Just telling us about a good on the water.Quote:

Anyone doing any good on blade baits? I figured with the lake all stirred up/muddy, that blades would be hot.
Blades work OK, clear or muddy water. Got a couple on blades when the water was muddy and cold couple weeks ago. I think jigs will do fine this weekend with the warm weather and a better slug of fish up on the reefs now.
I went out last Friday and Saturday, and caught one on a purple hair jig, and 4 others on blade baits. I have had more luck with blades, probably b/c I use them more, but il keep a pole rigged with a hair jig. You said the walleyes are moving up on the reefs, so are they still in pre-spawn?
I think they're full on the spawn now. This weekend and next week would certainly be moving us to the peak of that action, I believe. Been a bit slow prior to last weekend due to extremely cold and dirty water. Lot of fish were sulking off the reefs.
I fished last weekend also and was using two rods, one with a blade and the other was a purple hair jig/minnow. I caught 7 fish and only one was on the jig. Never used a blade that much before, but after being out two weeks ago, I couldn't seem to get a bite, and others were using blades around me catching fish, so I bought one. I now have bought three more and will be out this weekend again. But I will still try the jig and minnow to see what they prefer.
This one is going on the wall. 10#'s 29"
Got this in the Maumee river
Nice trophy. Did the youngster land it?Quote:

Didnt go today but was there tuesday evening and it was ok water rising is never the best bite. Tommorow and Friday should be great before crazy's get here for the weekend. But the rest of week should be good every where i got trips for 6 straight days will keep everyone posted with lures and water
Good luck to all!!
