Had a blast fishing Lake Erie with this crew from Indiana. They had a charter cancel on them on Friday so they called me to see if i could fit them in Friday afternoon and we made it work and got them an 8 man limit. We where back out again on Saturday and got another 7 man limit. It was windy and muddy but we stayed on the fish and found clean enough water to catch them. all on bandits and top 20's orange gold purple pink chartreuse all caught fish 15 feet down to 30 feet deep fish where all over the water column caught some real nice fish 30" was biggest fish.

Had a Great trip with a fellow from MI that inherited a boat and wanted some training on how to troll for walleye. We showed him several techniques to use thru-ought the seasons and managed to boat some nice walleye at the same time. All fish came on bandits 30 to 35 feet down north of kelly's island.

We had a great day fishing on Lake Erie today. We went searching for big fish and had to find clean water after the big blow. We ended up north of Kelly's Island and we found some nice fish. We caught them on perfect 10 pink lemonade and chrome blue bandits 15 to 25 feet down over 45 feet of water. It was a bumpy ride out there today not a lot of action the fishing was slow. there are tons of marks so our future looks great just need some nice weather.

Fished with a few customers on Friday 4/5 and it was rough in the morning and very muddy from the big blow that came thru Thursday night. took some time but we found some fish trolling north of Kelly's and the finished the day jigging on the reefs in front of oak harbor. they finished with their two man limit.

Saturday I fished with a friend and we where looking for big fish. the biggest we could find was 7.5 lbs but we had a nice day on the lake and he took home a limit.

Sunday was a trip with a crew of 5 and they wanted to fish for big walleye. we trolled north of the reef complex in front of oak harbor and we trolled up some very nice walleye. a 10lb, 2 - 9lb, 2 - 8lb and a basket full of smaller fish but all where solid nice fish. We trolled 1.3 mph and any color worked as long as it was blue. The fish wanted blue and husky jerks worked the best. Bandits where second favorite. great day on Lake Erie.

We met at Mazuriks at 8 am and headed out around 8:30. we went into shallower water this morning because the wind blew out of the north all night and i marked a lot of fish at 35' to 38' the day prior and i thought maybe it would clean up that water a little and we could catch them. I was wrong.. dang it.. and it was still too muddy, we trolled there for about 2 hours and caught one really nice fish on the bottom.

We moved back north and trolled south with the wind and picked up 2 over the dumping ground. Then the wind changed to out of the west and slowed a bit and we followed that mud line again west to east slow slow and slow. The temp dropped 10 degrees from the day prior and slowed the fishing way down, the bite was not nearly as good as saturday.

We kept working and ended up with a nice 29.5" fish ohio and about a 3 man limit. took some moving around and keeping after it for that. same program as saturday worked but we used more perfect 10's since the cold moved in and that seemed to help. the fish wanted everything slow. 

most fish caught over 40' to 47' of water 20' to 30' deep perfect 10's 20/20 and 20/30 caught most of them.

it was a nice day after lunch and i had a nice time making some new friend and sharing fish stories. Today may be the last fishable weekend for a while but it was very enjoyable to get the boat out and suck up some sun. Hope for more weather like this soon. 

See you all on the lake.. tight lines..
