I have to shake my head when I read some of these comments. I've read here that it's ODNR's fault, it's Canada's fault, and it’s the walleye's fault... How many of you have gone to Lake Erie and...

Sometimes folks are trying to find a nice way to say you're doing it wrong or in an innovative way that doesn't work as well as other methods. I have never in my 30+ years fishing for walleye heard...

I have success with Rapala floating minnows of various sizes in your typical colors of gold/black back, chrome/blue back, etc.

Thanks! I hope it helps a few folks out.

Sorry for the typo Chip. I'll fix that. I learned more from your book than any other out there. I recommend it often. See you on the water in the Spring!

No problem! Semper Fi

The outside planer board runs in echelon to the middle and inside boards. I set the boards up so I can trip the line loose and let it float back and swing behind the boat, then reel in the fish...

I think you're over-complicating it. I use inline planer boards, 2 oz snap weights, and the Precision Trolling app's 50+2 data to set my lure depths with a line counter reel. Shallow on the...

What is the OGF site?

Agreed. I see a few each time I'm out and try to net them if I can. People who release them don't think about where they end up.

A buddy who works at ODNR said they got hit with a nasty ransomware attack and all their web pages went down. They are slowly rebuilding them, but the fishing report is low on their priority list. ...

When I swap out treble hooks I go with Mustad TG-76 hooks. They are shorter and wider than a stock hook so I can go 1-2 sizes bigger in size without affecting the lure action plus the wider hook...

Sloch24 I agree. Some day this great fishing we're blessed with will fade as all things ebb and flow. Why not help everyone put food on the table?

There is a lot of sharing here in the western basin forum but not so much in the central forum.

I went out of Geneva about 7am. Looked all over in 35-50 fow. Came in at 11:30am with one. The Fish Ohio Report is wrong. You have to head north to 70 fow to find them in concentrations.

I fished that area 2 weeks ago. Reef Runner 800s and Stinger spoons were producing at 2-2.5 mph. We even got a few on Hot 'n Tots. I switch colors out after 15 minutes if we're marking fish but not...

We went out of Sheffield Lake to 40 feet of water and trolled with the wind. The lake was devoid of boats for the most part. The fish weren't stacked up but they were there suspended at 15-22'. ...

We went straight out of Huron past the pack to 45'-48' of water and trolled Stinger Scorpion spoons with the wind. Kevorkian, Nascar...on #2 Tadpoles with 29' and 45' leads with inline planers. It...

Has anyone been out jigging on the reefs?

I agree with dgf2250, changing speed is a good technique when the bite gets tough along with switching spoons frequently to find the right color. Next try adjusting the depth of your spoons. Walleye...

Thanks for sharing Zoome360!

Before you read my report let me get on my soapbox. If you're reading reports, but not sharing (successes or failures) it doesn't help the walleye community. We all want to have a successful day on...

The Catawba State Park ramp is closed for the season for construction.

The Catawba State Park ramp is closed for the season from what I read.

Sounds like you had a great outing! I was out early but sure didn't hook up an 8 pound Fish Ohio! Nice to read that you let it go. Most guys would put it in the box. Thanks for sharing! We need...
