September 5 additional information: A 7,8, and 10 color leadcore didn't do much . Usually I catch most of my fish on leadcore. I don't think they were getting down to the fish. A 10 color may get to 50. Even tried a deep diving plug on an 8 color, no luck. Riggers caught only 3, and only with fluttering. I never catch anything on riggers unless I flutter (spoon). Most were caught on divers. I find it virtually impossible to get divers to trip on Walleye. I had a Chinook diver and a dipsey out. Both adjusted as light as they will go. Many fish did not even trip diver and the only way we knew we had a fish was to be extremely attentive to the rod bend, etc. I do have a slide diver but I took it last time out because it has some issues, defective. Also, we ran two harnesses for hours and never even lost the worm. But at the cleaning station a couple guys got their limits on harnesses. I find that odd. But I always catch more on rapalas and long A bombers. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

September 5. Started at 7. Went straight out and trolled north. Started in 65 FOW. When we got in about 75 had some fish on screen. Turned West. Caught 6 by noon. Slow morning. Saw fewer fish towards Dunkirk, as water fit deeper to 90 feet Turned around and came back towards the Catt. At about 78 FOW Found lots of walleyes and caught 6 more in 2 hours. All stick baits. Varied our speed constantly with the i troll in hunt mode. From 1.5 to 2..6. the fish were 60 feet down. Towards the bottom. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Thanks for the reports. I've been driving all the way down to the Catt. Maybe I don't need to! I'm closer to SBH. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Wow, these look like normal Salmon spoons! I've been using smaller spoons. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Saturday August 24 2019. caught 12 walleyes. Started at 0630 in 60 FOW Trolling north. Got 7 lb walleye on a dipsey as we were letting it out, with 100 feet of line out. Kept trolling north out to 78 fow. Picked up a few here and there. Best screen for us was 60 to 65 FOW. Saw most walleye suspended between 55 and 60. Caught some on divers, some on 7 color leadcore, some on 8 color, a couple on downrigger on the bottom. 10 color leadcore didn't produce to my surprise. Used bomber long As, jointed rapala, spoons, and one eye-fish harness. A little rough, but fishable. Leadcore didn't work as well as usual, accounting for about half. Straight out seemed best. We went towards Dunkirk and saw fewer fish. They were scattered around today. Some guys reported good luck on 80 FOW. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Thanks for making a report. I am going Saturday morning. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Find a farm pond loaded with bluegills. Bobber, and worms. Best way to get hooked. The kids, hooked, not just the fish. Maybe that Tift preserve ponds right near the entrance to the SBH? never fished there but I here it has panfish. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Good tip. I have all the gear, leadcore, dipseys, coppers, autopilot, itroll, riggers, big boards. But your advice on just using some lead and low drag harness is refreshing. I think I will try it. Thanks. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Just got done. August 4. Fished from 0630 to 1130. Only caught 8. I went East a bit from the jetty. In 55 FOW the water temp 63 degrees 45 feet down. 75 degree surface. Nice thermocline. But this only in small area. Once we moved out of there the temp break was only a couple degrees. Walleyes were marked there, but no bites. We went deeper and caught fish from 63 to 70. Used stick baits mostly. Leadcore 5, 7, 8, and 10 color. Dipseys, and riggers. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Thanks for the report. We're going Sunday. Last time we were out 2 weeks ago we had better luck in about 85 feet. We'll try 55 to start this time. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Erie United Mobile App
