Pretty good info posted here already from the other gentlemen. A drift sock maybe one item to consider when vertical jigging for the males on or around the reef complex. All about the presentation as you know. As mentioned previously, south passage is somewhat of a funnel and historically holds alot of post spawn females as they will stage in this particular area for a breif period of time prior to heading back east for deeper waters. During a PWT tournament in 1993, we hit a pod of walleye which produced several 10-12 pound post spawn females trolling smithwick (Rattlin Rogue, Clown Color) A very slender crankbait with limit movement is critical, off shore snap weights or lead core to get the crankbait down in the strike zone. Speed is just as important,.08 to 1.2 mph tops. Hopefully the weather pattern and barometer is steady for you guys and the Ol' Northeasters don't show up with a big blow.
