E-G Can Report

Fished E, F, and G on Saturday. Pulled 3 our first pass just inside F at 8 am. Pulled 1 more on the second pass and then went dead for several hours. We swithched baits, tried different depths, and moved around inside E and F, all while marking fish, but struggled. Then we found some dirty water right by E can, made a pass, and caught 1 and had about 4 short strikes on 2 passes, then dead. Then we moved down outside G and worked East to the inside of G and picked up 2 more on the firts pass, tried to finish our limit, but the NE wind started to pick up so we packed it in at 3:30. We ended up with 7 for the 2 of us, with the biggest being 29". Only 2 still had eggs, the other 5 females were spawned out. We used 800 reefs...blue/silver, eriedescent, pearl ghost, burnt muffin or day old...the new color??. The fish came on 40 leads early and 20 leads later. Never turned on the radio, but didn't have much to report as the fishing for us was slow and sporadic. Here's pics of our 4 biggest. Good luck!

Great report Great looking fish

Nice looking fish. That don't look like your sportcraft you were fishing on.

Greg, no call.... What the heck I was in the same area... I could of helped... Big fish.... What a good day on the lake... That's a good question when is the sportcraft going in the water? Did you see me out there?

Skipper, I didn't know you were fishing yet...So that was you lol...I didn't know you were in yet...I told my buddy...I could have swore I just saw Eyehunter heading out. Hoping to put the big boat in in the 7th.

Trolling report.. if you are looking for trophy fish. Troll the outer deep water just outside the range cans. We did well with reef runners (bare naked, green flash) 12 to 35 back at 1.2 knots. Big fish..

hey p.o.s. .a.h., you actually posted a report for once? Is it real? Or does somone have to call your cell for that one?:D

who is this clown? Jim is not only a top notch fisherman, but a first class person as well! let's show some support from those of us who have relied on Jim's advise or expertise or both at one time or another. I know that I have been the benificiary of both on many occassions!

hahahah.. i cant believe that guy is still all butthurt! maybe he should read some of the extremely helpful posts on walleye.com and go fishing so he can relax a little.:rolleyes:;):eek:

Have you ever made an informative post here on the Western Basin Forum? When was the last time you actually made a fishing report or any type of report on the Western Basin Forum? I have to give you a very small amount of credit though, seems like you may have graduated into actually asking a couple questions about the fishing in the Western Basin.

By making your snide remarks about Skipper 9's integrity, you have attacked one of the best, most helpful and most honest contributors on the Western Basin forum, my question to you is why? Seems that you cannot leave a sleeping dog lay. Why would you expect any type of cooperation from the other members on the Western Basin forum after attacking Skipper 9 the way you have?

Was your ego hurt so bad that you still have to talk smack to contibuting members of this site? Your main contribution to the western basin forum up to this point would be to criticize and to question the truthfulness of one of those who do contribute reports on a regular basis, does that not make you feel foolish and also make you a hypocrite by your own words as far as posting non fishing comments let alone 0, nada, none fishing reports to date. Just sayin.....

Now you have a nice day whitecapper!

Whitecapper 10 posts in 4 years

Skipper9 410 posts in years that are helpful I don't no skipper9 but I do read
His posts he has no problem giving good info and helping weekend fisherman
I run a charter service out of Geneva and do the same. Let's show some respect for the guy this site is a privilege not a write pplease don't abuse it!

I will back skipper nine reports because he was fishing right next to me, and as far as a skipper there not one better for giving correct information to help some one out, as for a person
in general you couldn't ever meet a better person, who always
gives the shirt off his back and never ask for a penny, I proud
to have skipper 9 as a friend and a fellow captain who is always
has time to help us out. Thanks again Jim I wish there was a thousand more like you. Wayne and Capt. Mike Reel Sport Charters

skipper 9 helped us with leads and color on sat took our limit real nice fish

and for the guy that seems to have a problem the so called whitecapper why

dont u just find some where else to fish you obviously are not welcome around here.

First of all you NEVER call someone out.... Skipper 9 has been on here long before me, He's always willing to give anyone who has a question a honest answer.. I personaly don't know Skipper9 but like many of us I read what he posts.. We fish at different ends of the Lake but I have fished out of Turtle Creek for the last few years. I have a Cottage on the creek but this year we decided to keep the Big boat closer to home.. People like him and myself don't have to post anything!! But this site which I'm proud to be a part of do it to help our fellow fishermen who may live on the Lake or live a 100 miles away get on the fish and enjoy the Lake as much as we do..I went rounds 2 years ago with a certian someone and almost got banned myself.. But I was tied of good people trying to post where we have has success catchin fish and someone being disrespectful and saying I was a liar.. Information is the key to being a successful fishrmen..I have met some great people on here in person Pap, FredT.. I talk to RUSS,Wayne Johnson, and a few others on a regular basis... Just remember the goal of this website is to help each other get on the fish, Not to be a Dick.. I'll help anyone and give them a honest answer.. I'm not the Walleye King of the western basin by no means I catch fish I do it every day win or lose I'm out doing it.. Good luck to all and be safe out their...
LOWE LIFE

P.O.S. A.H. ???

If directed towards skipper9 I interpret that as Person Of Skill And Humble. Here's to a guy that continually crushes the fish, shares the info., and never boasts about it. Oh yeah...and not to forget those few thousand "skipper9" perch rigs that he gave away for FREE last year.

I remember!!!!!!!!! That PATHETIC S.O.B. had far too many chasing walleye all over Erie due to his bogus reports and admitted to getting off on it.

As far as Jim Skipper 9 (formerly Skipper8) goes, he ALWAYS shares valuable information. Jim has helped many struggling anglers in many ways. I admit, I am more guarded with my top end information but will share with the "good guys" on here.

Gettin Jiggy - It is time we slime our new boats up!!!!! Let's get organized for some North of the border action when it slows down here....say July.
Also - I have to get you in on our Arkansas hunt post Chrismas next year!

Tight lines fellow anglers

Whitecapper, you sure called out the wrong guy. I consider skipper9 as the authority in the Western basin and you will have a hard time finding a single person who would disagree.

Let's all just get along and start this year off right!

Tight lines everyone.

He made plenty of statements of, " I slammed em on Crib this morning". That was so funny because I was the first boat on the reef and only a couple boats there that morning and he said he slammed em early on that spot and went in. HAHA, never happened, because I pay attention to the boats around me most of the day. The "walleyewacker" was never there or probably anywhere else he mentioned.

just ignore whitecap we know how he is and maybe he will go away keep reporting skipper9 you have helped alot of us erie fishermen find fish thank you
