Kelley Island
Has anyone made it out around Kelley's yet thinking about coming up first part of April and putting in at Kelley's any suggestions on Jig or trolling around the Island usually get out to 20' to 30' depth range.

You obviously survived so you won that argument. Last year I was more concerned about the water temps if something was to happen to you and/or your friend as survival is really short lived if in that cold water. How some people behave while on the water, even if you do know what you are doing those type people can and do cause unnecessary safety problems to occur with their negligent boating.

Planning a trip to Kelley's mid-April. Does water temp make a huge difference on whether I should be running cranks vs harnesses mid-April around Kelley's?

You should check out the Buckeye Kayak trail, I believe they have a facebook page, but quite a few of them get out into Erie in early spring and do well for walleye. Those guys come prepared though, I believe some of them have more money in their outfits then most of the boats out there. A good group of people to learn from, they normally keep it close to shore and avoid the big traffic days, during the summer the Harbors are very popular for fishing as well. I think last year they had a tournament at Middle bass that was a good time, everybody took the ferry out and fished around the island all weekend, this was in the summer though.

Once the water temperature reaches 50 degrees worm harnesses can start to out produce crankbaits. I'll generally start running harnesses along with my crankbaits when the water temperature reaches 45 degrees.
