I was out there as well! What did you get them to go on? I tried DHJ's, P10's, Jr thundersticks on lead core, bandits, 44 mags...you name it and only picked one (was by myself and fishing 3 lines). With marks like that it was frustrating, wondering if I was seeing huge shad or white bass and not walleye. Tried turns to accelerate and stall the baits, no bueno. What was the magic sauce?

Happy new year all, weather looks like it is closing in now. Hopefully it is short and we can get back out there soon!

I was out saturday out of Huron also.... with very similar results. I fished bandits, p-10's, big spoons, and little spoons. Fished between .8 and 1.5 for the most part. As mentioned the marks were great, and I couldn't believe we didn't end up with a boat full. We caught 2 fish late in the day to save the skunk.

We caught our fish on bandits trolled at 1.5mph. Color didn't seem to make a big difference. The fish we caught came on baits trolled between 140 and 175 back unassisted. We actually left the areas of the most marks and boats and ran east. We were mostly trolling by ourselves. Not nearly as good of marks but a few biters in the mix.
