Conneaut 7/17

Four of us hit the water at 6:30 and joined the perch pack. After about an hour and a half we only had a dozen smallish perch so we decided to try for walleye. We went a little west to where we had good luck the week before. We fished hard till four pm and bloated 12. Caught 4 fish 27 to 29 . The rest were 17 to 24. Five throwbacks, 4 sheephead, a couple silver bass. Worked 48 to 52 fow. All caught on pink or antifreeze double willows. A mx of dipsy's, lead core, and downriggers. Targeted fish near the bottom. Quite a few hard hits and missed fish as well. Seems like a lot of damn hard work finding and catching Walleye this year. But I love it.

Good job! Thanks for the report!
Must say, we agree, Walleye fishing this year has been less than easy with all the short fish taking the bait and the movement of the Walleye East through the Central basin this year seems to be different.

Nice job Rubycat, thanks for the report.

I really am getting the itch to fish the 48 fow west of Walnut, I have a wedding to go to Saturday but thinking about taking Friday off work. For sure we will be out Sunday and I will post the results for both days.
