Why not post what's going on? I like seeing what's hot when i don't get a chance to go out for a couple days. I've been fishing the area west of the reefs for the last 25 years, latley 4 times a week. Anybody thats been fishing this end of the lake knows that the days of driving a mile off shore and limiting in an hour comes to an end soon and driving 12 miles north and spending all day to get limits is only weeks away. I remember the days of just looking for the pack of boats or where the charters are going was the only way of knowing where the fish are supposed to be. That didn't tell you what the hot color was or which lure was best that day....trial and error was the way to find out if you haven't been out since the week before. So far this year has been the best year i can remember...been in the water since the 27th of Mar. caught limits almost every trip,threw back fish on a lot of trips,gave fish to all my old timer fishing buddies and anybody that doesn't get the chance to fish as much as i do.....keep fishing...keep postin...it's a fishing forum!

Lowe,

Your reports are great for those who do not get to fish nearly as much as we like. Anytime that I am planning a trip out I review these posts and ask for any assistance. I always post within a day or two my results in detail. Thanks Lowe and do not let the prior posts rub you the wrong way

I'm not sure which will be best for fishing...I think tommrow night we will give it a try out here in toledo and we will be jigging for them...It all depends on the water temp..If it gets any warmer then you'll have to go with harnesses...Jigging up their last week was SLOW, but I was never really on the fish that day...I'll talk to some of the guys I know up at Wild Wings and see if I can get ant Info out of them...We can meet up one night at our cottage,since it's right next to lamberjack's..How many guys you bringing this way...Depends on work but mabey I'll fry up some fish for you guys...Which cottage do you stay at??? They have a cottage right next door to ours right on the creek...Let me know and we'll at least have a few beers and tell about the one that got away..

Heading up to Put In Bay the last week in May. What are some good spots around the islands and what might be the best way to fish for walleye at that time. Since it's the only time of the year I can make it up, I'd like to come with a mess of fish. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
