Thanks guys for all the good information. Was planning a trip this coming weekend but been watching the weather and the wind/waves may not cooperate. Due to work I only have a day or two on the weekends to get on the lake, so I pay close attention to the weather. GoBucks thank you for starting the information and sharing. If I don't get out this weekend due to weather I plan to the following and will keep reading this site and will give feedback as well. Thanks

I too am considering a trip on Saturday... weather pending. If you want to collaborate should the weather work out give me a shout.

Good Morning everyone. I am heading up Thursday evening to fish Friday and Saturday. It looks like the weather is going to cooperate and any guidance would be appreciated. Is the jig bite still on? If so any spots better than others? I plan to go out of Catawba would like to jig or cast to start then can troll. Thanks in advance for any info...

Following!

I am a lowly weekend warrior myself. Plan is to fish Friday and Saturday and spend the night at PIB both nights. Tentative plan is to jig fish the Starve, Mouse Island Reef, and Scott Point Shoal areas on Friday since they are "on the way" to PIB. Then thinking of hitting the west reefs (Niagara, Toussant, etc.) on Saturday. Plans are made to be broken so who knows what we will actually do but that is how we plan to start.

I am always down to give help and get help so if you want to start a text chain or something, I am in! Phone is 614-738-3131

Many…if not most…of us, are weekenders. We love to fish, but still have jobs. I don’t think any of us want to be the “Googan” who pulls right up on head boats and tries to fish out of their coolers. But this is the best walleye fishing since the 80’s when my grandfather, “The Kentucky Colonel” ran a charter business. And there are literally millions of walleye out there. And we have the awesome privilege of fishing this lake. Just this weekend I saw license plates from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Indiana. People travel from far and wide. So let’s make sure we all have a great time, with the time that we DO have, on the lake. And share information. Tight lines!

The jig bite was on last week, caught some nice ones on the crib reef.

Thanks for the report Fishfinder. Without a doubt the weather has been crazy! I swear March was better than April. Two of my buddies went out of Huron on Monday and the fishing was brutal. They pulled everything but the kitchen sink and caught nada. According to them, the fish were in the dirty water but would not chew. They found clean water but didn't mark any fish.
Let's hope things turn around soon.
