Great Job Dave! I am sure the kids had a blast.

Great Job! Glad to see kids enjoying. Trying to get grandson out on Lake Erie for his first time walleye fishing but the weather gods just aren't helping much. If I may ask what were the best colors of Bandits did you use? Any help is deeply appreciated. Thanks

Moldman, best colors that day were white, purple, and chartreuse. Best color changes day by day, biggest thing i concentrate on is speed and depth. Wrong color in the right place will still catch a fish or two. feel free to ask questions.

Thanks for the pics and update. What advice can you offer for a fisherman new to western Lake Erie? We've spent our years fishing Ontario and Saginaw bay. Wondering what tactical changes we should plan for when fishing Erie in April. Trying to get a feel for the April timeline, depths, and lures. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Trolling: April fishing is primarily a crank bait bite. go to lures are: Reef Runners, Deep husky Jerks, Bandit walleye deep. once the water warms up to 50 degrees worm harnesses start to produce. Areas to start at are in and around the Camp Perry firing range buoy lines, key is finding and marking fish. I hate blind trolling. Fish are always on the move this time of year!
Jigging this time of year is good on all the reefs in side the the firing range can. lots of males will stay on the reef when the females have long been gone. casting hair jigs bare or tipped with minnows will produce. color of jig changes day to day. local tackle shops have tons of them.
