If your in search of 10 pounds or over, do your time in the south passage or hit the flats common to the reefs and start trolling. The hogs will be there, it's just a matter of when. If you need jacks, camp on the reefs.

South Passage
South Passage, as mentioned in the previous blog, the area between the southern most tip of South Bass Island and the northern most tip of Catawba Island. This particular area is considerable deeper then the adjacent waters common to the reef complex. One could say it could be considered somewhat of a holding area for the 10's of millions of walleyes migrating back west during the late winter months from the deeper waters common to eastern Lake Erie. Once that magical water temp of 40 to 44 degrees hits, BANG, the famales make that mad dash to the reefs to drop their eggs for all those jacks that have been waiting on them. After the rather short visit to the reef complex, the females will gather in the flats common to the reef complex, rest for a short period of time and head back east. Over the past 15 years, a majority of the PWT and NAWA tournaments held on Western Lake Erie have been won off these specific flats I'm referring to. You hit a pod of monster females, (Rick Lacrosse 1993, NAWA) If I recall, 10 fish, Over 10 pound average, they called the last day due to 35 knot winds, only after letting us go from Portside, on the Maumee River in Toledo. A long trek back to Portside needless to say. Back then it was a 5 fish limit.
Just remember,
You find bait fish on the electronics.
You'll find ol' marble eye
