RD9 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Posted May 22, 2016 Took my two sons out this morning about 9am out of Dunkirk. Day time bite was on today. All our fish came off three colors of lead with Rynowsky's sticks. I ran Bay Rays but after two years of running Rynowsky's and Rats side by side the Rynowsky's win hands down. Fish were piled up in tight off the reefs. I caught them going 2.2 on GPS using an S turn pattern. I'm sure lots are waiting for water to warm for the day time bite to kick in but that thinking is wrong (old school thinking). Last year we did 100 day time eyes plus in May. Don't get me wrong night time is great but I get sleepy and the kids don't care if you were up all night nor does the boss. I'll be back at it tommorrow afternoon. 1
Eyestopper Posted May 22, 2016 Report Posted May 22, 2016 That's fantastic! Gonna be a great year for the eyes!

RD9 Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Posted May 25, 2016 Well went out Monday from 5 pm to 830 ish. Only four eyes. Really thought we would of got a box full. Water is warming quickly. wont belong before they move out deeper a little. We still marked them in tight but they were up top caught an eye fluttering a rigger and catching one right on the surface.
Eyestopper Posted May 25, 2016 Report Posted May 25, 2016 Ready for the day bite. Night bite has been inconsistent at best. Sitting at 75 for the year. Was really hoping to be over 150 already. Waters warming nicely and 80's on the way so won't be long.
lineman49 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 Anyone been out during the day, doing any good??
Eyestopper Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 Been out the last few days and can only manage to get a couple or few a day. Tried all different depths and areas. Can't seem to get a lock on them. Fish are coming a long ways apart. 50/50 on sticks and harnesses. Sent from my SM-G928V using Lake Erie United Mobile App

King Slammin Posted June 3, 2016 Report Posted June 3, 2016 We had to work for them, but we got it done. Two man limit with some nice bass mixed in. All eyes caught on harnesses and bass on sticks. No real pattern to the catches either. Nuclear green Colorado, watermelon willow, and gold gobie hatchet blades all took fish. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United Mobile App 1
