Tuff times, Stay Safe , PLEASE~!
Will be fishing for the walleye and getting jiggy~!
In times past, April has been good for a limit of perch at H Can!

Back soon weather permitting.

Fished H can and Camp Perry area, no bites, several head boats were fishing the same area and then they moved west.
Went to G can , dropped the anchor, and no bites. (checking for yellow perch)
G can area had several boats trolling.
I was using a spreader with minnows, and tipped the green hair jigs with minnow.
When jigging I had the spreader drifting just above the bottom, this has produced walleye in the past.
I marked fish in the Portage River, but no marks once I was in the lake.
First run and getting my sea legs back.
Back at it soon.

You said head boats were out fishing?I would think since the Ohio charter assoc has ordered no charter fishing,that would include the head boats.Head boats can put alot more people dangerously close together for hours.Which head boats are still operating?

None of the Port Clinton head boats have left the docks that I seen. There are net boats out.

Very few were on the head boat, figured they were captains and crew enjoying the day.

Thanks for clarifying that the head boats only had captain and small crew.I would consider that safer than letting general public join you.Hey island troller,saw ur post on OGF about that huge muskie you caught today,that trashed your net and got away.Wow,that must have been exciting.Have heard of guys landing 30" muskie but you said yours was about 50".To bad you didn't land it and get picture.
