further out in the lake between brest bay and the Edison plant. I am sure that this weekend there will by a ton of boats out there. look for the packs of boats and there will be fish ( maybe )there. I will probably start out in front of Edison and head north. I will have my radio on 68 if you want give me a shout.

good luck

This was a couple weeks ago now, trip. I was lazy at uploading the pictures. (Busy at work) We actually got the perch off from stony point. We drifted by two old timers in a little boat that was anchored, and hooked a perch. As we drifted past them maybe 40 yards, we caught another perch. And since the walleye were not really at stony point, we decided to pull lines and drift back through that school that the old timers were ancored over. Couldnt pick up another perch but those guys sayed they got a decent mess of them. They ended up pulling up their anchor as we drifted by the second time. I did also watch them pull up a long, tiny rope with a glass jar of minnows. Ive heard about this, but never witnessed it before. Kinda thought it was a wives tale, to draw the perch in, or keep the school around?

We saved a hand full of the whites just to try them out on the dinner plate. But I warned the guys, if we need the cooler space, (which we almost did) then those whites are going back in the drink. LOL
Are there any eyes left in michigan water? or have they moved into ohio?
Thanks

I got 5 today. They were small but all legal to eat. I also got a bonus 13 in yellow. Fished about halfway between turtle island and toledo beach. 14.5 - 15.5 seemed to be where I got them. Gold, gold, gold. Parrish peas and homemade weapon style harnesses. Did I mention they liked gold today. Took all day but still better than I've been doing. Stayed close to bottom. Was pretty rough out there for my ranger but it was a good day.

But to answer your walleye question. We trolled deep diver crank baits while the lake was really flat, took a few this way. And later in the day the waves picked up and the clouds rolled in. We got sprinkled on a little. But with the lake getting bigger and us trolling so slow, we ended up going back to drifting bouncers and spinners and that bite was on untill we got our limit. we were south of edison, probably closer to bowls then sterling. 18 FOW. I havnt learned the cans yet.

Caught 6 Thursday evening drifting MI/OH line between turtle and the lighthouse 13-16 fow. Fish scattered throughout the area. Gold blades best. All fish tight to the bottom. Largest 28", rest 18"-22".

we ended up with 4 yesterday. 22fow south of the rasin river channel. bottom bouncers 1.2-1.5 mph

went down to bolles and the dumping grounds and was marking fish but could not get a bite. water was real muddy. you could not see your hook a foot under water. so we followed the ohio line north and found a spot of clearer water by the rasin river. I was planning on trolling the ohio line but the wind and waves would not let me. there was 2-3 footers and a stiff breeze from the north east.
