Kelley's Island

I have seen fish kills before. What you see on top is a minute percentage of actual kill. Most are on the bottom. I am worried about this one...its bad.

We were told about 40% are healthy enough to eat or chase prey. The others have been slowly dying. We talked to a charter captain and he knows a diver that was out on the reefs looking around and he came across more dead walleye that were on the bottom. Here's a link to something i found. http://outdoornews.com/news/article_...cc4c002e0.html

Just was wondering if the author of the article alluded in the Outdoor News graduated from the same school or schools as the experts who posted these comments about the fish kill in the links that I have posted. These are the people who study Lake Erie for a living and love the lake. They do not need to make a name for themselves or write articles that play on the sportsmans emotions and fears just to sell newspapers. I will put my money on the Ohio Sea Grant team every time over top of an Outdoors news writers stories and opinions when it comes to the truth about the Lake!!

I hope someone gets the test completed soon so something can be done to rescue the fishery if needed. The way to much at stake for Ohio.

Got back Sunday, fished Thursday through Saturday. Not one walleye. A few drums and silvers was it. I admit I am no expert at fishing Erie, this was only my third time, but had done pretty good first 2 times. We tried harnesses and cranks. Fished all around south bass, not one eye. Didn't hear about the kill until we were already there.
