    Is jigging productive for the bigger females as well as the males? So far my largest walleye was 30 inches and 10 pounds. I would love to get a 13 pounder for the wall this spring. But on the other hand the best eaters are the smaller ones!

    Default Spring

    What I mean is do to all the weather and algea last year the hatch was about zero.and and this year dosent look good , just the info I retrieved from our lake Erie water shed meeting last week , they estimated3-5 years for the spawning beds to turn around. While reducing the numbers from 4-3 fish a day. An estimated one hundred charters went bankrupt last year. And the record rainfall this year will make things difficult this year also.

    Default No Erie trip for us this year

    We have been comming out to the western part of Erie for years, but this year I think I will cancel out. the last two years have been tough for us and all the talk about the alge has the guys on edge about comming out this year. This is a sad situation!!!. I know skipper9 and a few others done well! but it is 10hr. ride for us and we only have a week. To all the locals and charters tight lines be safe!

    Ya, ran more trips during 2011 than I ever have and already have most of the peak times booked up for 2012. People will still keep coming up, they want to fish. Plain and simple, they want to fish. The kicker is I havent booked the regulars yet. Looks like its time to send out the winter flyer and start making casting rigs. 13 weeks to go.
