Gettin Jiggy where you fishin out of?
I'll be draggin these around. Custom balsa cranks my dad makes called WE-Baits.
We got our perch east of ballast island.. Nice size.. All caught on Uncle rons perch rigs
Fished saturday 5/21. Left Gem Beach and started fishing the flats in about 35 fow west of Middle Island at 1030 am. Was casting weight forward lures. There was no drift. Also put another rod out with a spreader and minnows since we were moving so slow. Managed about a dozen nice perch. About noon the breeze picked up and did get 3 big walleye. The first was about 5# and then a 7# and 8#. Got them on erie dearie (chartruse/red head). There were a number of charter boats and others around. Seemed all were doing OK.
It should pick up, I hope. Stopped fishing about 2pm
Fished Sat. Northwest of West Sister as was posted on the Happy Hooker site. Got 7 fish drifting with bottom bouncers and worms harnesses with gold blades. The wind calmed down a little and the bite stopped so we started trolling. Ran stinger spoons with #40 jet divers 40 to 65 back and got 17 to finish a four man ticket. Most all the fish were 4-lbs. Most fish came on monkey puke and chicken-wing. Good luck too you.![]()
