    Default Weekend with the Grandsons

    Brought my grandsons (age 7 and 8) up for their first trip to Erie. Day started on Friday with the perch bite up on the line being slow with just 5 perch and 2 kids losing interest fast. Papa was starting to think what to do...where to go. Got a call from a buddy that was picking up some eyes off the Huron dump. Decided to make the trip around Kelleys down to Huron. Got east of Kelleys and was marking fish so thought why not. Let's try it. After a few hours we had our limit of 24 and heading back in with 2 smiling kids from ear to ear. This afternoon headed back to the same place...same program (dipsy and spoons). 2.5 hours and a little more sorting we had our 24 again. 1/2 of both days fish were 18" to 20" and other half ranging from 22" to 25". Now have 2 exhausted kids and a tired and super happy Papa. Times that I'll never forget !

    Nice job. Can't wait till my grandkids are old enough to take. This makes my decision to fish walleye tomorrow easy. How Far East of Kelly's did you end up.

    This where I was. The dump only had white bass but all around the outside was steady pick.

    Thank you Eriegardless, Your Post and the others following up helped me a bunch. I have been fishing on a buddies boat in Bula but am happy to be back in the west on mine. We picked up 18 Monday after perching but they were not as big as yours. How far south did you troll? Past the dump near Cedar Point?

    I'll agree on the good tip. Wife and I had our limit by 11:00. 17 to 24 inches. Slow trolling harnesses with snap weights.
