kellys

[stubby]

Everyone posted their handles - so far, we've got "Rebel-1", "Somthin Fishy", "EyeCrazy", "PeleeBound", "Jefferson", "Biz Wiz" and me, "Eye Catcher" - although I think there is another "Eye Catcher" up on Erie so call me "Lund Eye Catcher" so we don't get confused (I'm in a big Green Lund Grand Baron that has "Eye Catcher" name on the back of the boat).

Calling for some rough water friday evening but looks good for Sat...

Do most of you plan on drifting with harnesses or trolling (with harnesses and/or reef runners?) Should be a good drift fri eveing with 3 foot waves and good wind...

We might be staying at The Penninsula - I heard it's about $40 - not sure about boat parking though...

Staying at the Knights Inn in Sandusky. Travelocity rate was about $40 / night plus tax. Am at the hotel now. Continental Breakfast, WIFI, fridge, microwave, and coffee maker in room. Clean and friendly service. Close to marinas in Sandusky. Never been to this hotel before but so far so good.

Thanks for the replies on the hotels, 40.00 a night is much better than what I am used to paying. Now I need to find out where the penninsula is.

Good luck this weekend! I will probably just call on channel 68 for the 'walleye.com" group and see who responds tomorrow. Thanks again everyone.

I never heard Rebel-1, Somethin Fishy, BizWiz, etc.. on the radio so not sure if you guys made it up. I fished the area we talked about (NW of Kellys) and it was slow on Sat. We managed 11 eyes Sat - most drift fishing harnesses and 2 oz bottom bouncers with 2 of those caught trolling (1 on harness and 1 on little ripper). Fish from 6am - 5pm - long day of fishing for only 11 walleye. Funny thing though, out of 4 guys fishing, 1 guy caught 9 of the fish - very strange. 1 guy caught nothing but sheepheads and not a single walleye. How did the rest of you do? Saw lots of boats fishing the East side of Kelly's - not sure if they caught much though...

i heard there was a early bite on the east side of kellys and then it was slow after that.
