King Slammin Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Depends how deep you want to target. I always fish the marks and above. We have two 4 oz off the bow and two 2 oz off the stern in that 25-35' range. The 4 oz are right on the bottom and the 2 oz are 5-7' up. I'll change that out to 6 oz and 4 oz when the fish move out to the fence. There was a lot of boats out there and boards made it tough to maneuver and turn on fish so we took them out and stuck with the 4 rods which worked out well Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United Mobile App 1
problem child Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 sounds good, targeting same depth as you. We mainly run RR 800's and bandits all summer to avoid the endless white bass on the harnesses. think 60 back is good?
King Slammin Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Later on I'll switch to sticks as the fish move deeper and west. Theres a chart for the 50/50 method using drop weights. It works pretty good. At 60 back and 60 to the board with 2 oz you would be at 19' at 1.5 mph Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United Mobile App

Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United Mobile App ready for some bigger ones... seems like a lot of smaller 19-22 inch fish this spring night fishing.
jsnyder11 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Posted June 5, 2016 Fished in front of the windmills. Trolled 5 color lead with harnesses and bottom bouncers with harnesses. Caught most on chartreuse willow leafs. Only caught 4 out there, one short and then moved out 2 miles, caught 5 first troll, only one keeper. Kept at it to boat one more keeper and about 12 shorts.

dukhnter8 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Posted June 5, 2016 I was out Saturday am, got one of the bat. nice eater 18", was of the windmills then headed west. Harness on 5 color lc, goby colored blade. Water temp on the probe was 65-51, warmest water was off the windmills, coldest the farther west you go. Sent from my XT907 using Lake Erie United Mobile App
