Stillwater Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Got out yesterday, Friday 8/30 out of the Catt. Lines in water at 8:45 am. Headed straight out to 80 fow. Many boats were out so we started outside the fleet and trolled around the edge of them. Depth reached 95 feet at the deepest. Stopped at about 1:30 pm. Finished with 10 walleye, 1 steelhead, 1 short eye. Fished 2 dipsies and 1 leadcore. Dipsies on 3 setting 170 to 200 out. Combination of harnesses and spoon on the dipsies and a northern lights Bomber on the 10 colors. Great day. Sunny and calm water. Nice size on our largest eyes. 3 @ 25 inches and just above 5 pounds. Lots of bait in the area. Good luck to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric66 Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Fished Friday from 7-10:30am in 70 to 85 feet. Two riggers from 50 to 65 feet and a 10 color. Used Sutton spoons to mimic the smelt and also a black and silver jointed rapala. Was only getting hit on riggers so added a snap weight to my core and it started to get hit too. Tried other patterns but only the suttons and black/silver rapala worked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted September 7 Report Share Posted September 7 Fished yesterday Thursday 9/5 from 9 to 5:30 out of the Catt. Started out at 70 fow with stiff wind and 2 to 3 ft waves. Drifted with 3 oz bottom bouncers & harnesses on hand held spinning rod. Caught 5 eyes pretty steady action. Wind slowed and shifted. Switched to trolling and got 7 more for our 2 man limit with 1 dipsy and 1 leadcore with sticks and harnesses. Lost a heavy one on the fight. Cut the line. Size range, 15 to 25.5 inches. Best trolling screens were in 80 to 85 fow near Middle Road. Also got about 6 perch, biggest 13.5 inches. Great day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djp Posted September 7 Report Share Posted September 7 Fished 9/4 and 9/5 for the first time ever out of Dunkirk in 70 to 90 with 90 being the best. We had a blast. Mag dipsy on 1 out 85 to 130 on the inside and #1 dipsy on 3 out 165 to 220 were the producers as well as riggers parked from 60 to 66. Ran all sticks. 3 man limit each day with 5 bonus steelhead on 9/4 and 2 on 9/5. 1 metalhead broke us off that was over 12lbs pushing 15! Oh ya, and a few perch n a giant sheepie. Will have to fish Erie more often! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
