  1. I will be there tomorrow. Do the eyes first and then look for perch
  2. I don’t do sundays but’s if it is not windy Monday, I’ll be there"
  3. I wonder if I talked to you today and tuesday. Did you use the Hanover launch? We did the same as you but my go to lures have been rainbow renoskis , and Michigan stingers. I have the black Alumacraft.
  4. I have a 16 1/2 almacraft escape. Narrow beam. No problem for most of my fishing but have to pick days on Erie. Anyway, I hope the weather lets us get out a few more times.
  5. I made the same trip from Rochester too that day. Got out by 7:30 and had about two hours to get 8 fish. Too much for my boat and headed in . Another great forecast. I hope the wind forecast for tomorrow is correct. Going to give it a try.
  6. i started in the wrong are and it took us some time to get our two man limit. We went slightly east of the Cat close to the border in 75’. We did run in to steelhead out there and got 6 and lost a few. Ran in a bit and found a nice school of eyes. I think the guys that crushed them were further east and not as deep. We saw a lot of boats there. Everything was the top 40’. Renoskis and Michigan stinger spoons..
  7. It was 44 deg at 50’ at the cat. No it will settle in a few days. They will be back
  8. I was there and between four boats, we caught four eyes, 2 lakers and one steelhead. Fished from 70-90' Ice water and a strong east to west current. Not good at all.
  9. Great sharing on info. A couple of weeks ago, I posted that I could not get a fish on the renoskis. Everything on the harnesses. The trick is to go “ cold turkey” . Run all plugs/ spoons and kick up the speed. I had a lot of hits on turns too. That tells me they plugs were going faster or slower than the 2"2average speed depending on the turn.
  10. Hard to say. Just about equal. SOG was around 2.2. I always use one dicey with wire set at 2 1/2 and the other side has mono set at 3. If I had a bigger boat, I would probably run 4 dipseys and forget the lead core just because it is easier for me.
  11. Basically straight out of the Cat in 75-81' today. Finally got rid of the worm harnesses and did a three man limit on renoskis. Dipsy's , lead core and a nice 28" fish on the rigger set at 53.
  12. That’s great news. Maybe it will be a good fall perching.
  13. Wow, what a day. We had doubles and triples out there. Never slowed down. 75' straight out, 50' down. We were finished at 10:30 and looked for perch. Couldn't find any.
  14. Wire on one and mono on the other.
  15. Pretty cool. One question - Where were the gobies?
  16. I knew if I followed youngbloods advice it would be a good day, and it was. A little shorter on the dipsey at 150 but the same depth of water. Lead core went at 7-8 color and wire diver was out 100'. I did not bother with the riggers today. Just a little too sporty out there.
  17. Thanks for the advice. Back to fishing reports for Barcelona.
  18. Got one out of 18 on a renoskis today. I am pretty sure that I just can’t run both sticks and harnesses together on my boat. Going to have to be one or the other.
  19. We are doing all our fish on harnesses. I can’t get the stick program going. I must be doing something wrong. Running around 2.0 on gps. Tried renoskis and reef runners. They worked for us last year?
  20. Last year I used nothing but stick baits and spoons at this time. I can’t buy a hit on anything but harnesses lately. 18 fish Monday, one on a reef runner. Zip on three different. renoskis and two different spoons. The reef runner also caught three silver bass in a row.
  21. Same depth out of the Cat today. Three man limit.
  22. Good luck to everyone.Hope the weather is ok.
  23. When I try for perch starting in late August, I use a 3/4-1oz buckshot spoon on the bottom instead of a sinker. It seems that every time out we land an eye or two on this set up. It is usually tipped with an emerald. The best luck with this technique has been straight out of Dunkirk. Funny thing though, the eyes have all come early in the morning. Never got one like this after around 8:30 or so.
  24. Had a similar trip today. Took a little bit to find them but had our two man limit in less than two hours. Harnesses on lead core set 5 back and wire dipsey setting 3 out 90' worked the best.
  25. Last years great bite started with a long stretch of stable weather from the end of August through the first two weeks of September. Of course, I missed most of it by being in LA.
