dukhnter8 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Posted May 23, 2017 Days off & good weather rarely coincide!Same problem here, as well as the weekends not being decent weather.Sent from my SM-G930V using Lake Erie United Mobile App
jimski2 Posted May 24, 2017 Report Posted May 24, 2017 Yesterday fine weather but a light north wind. Current from the SW as the high NE winds from the weekend pushed the water to Ohio. Very few perch on the bottom as we searched from Point Breeze to Hanford Bay. One boat had 8 perch off the Catt in 56 foot of water. Another boat had 12 perch off Evangola, we searched from 15 foot to 58 foot of water. Maybe when some SW winds return things will pick up. Today's forecast has high NE winds coming again so cut your grass get your honeydoos done. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United
Starcraft 75 Posted May 24, 2017 Report Posted May 24, 2017 Yesterday we went out of the Catt and searched for an hour when we finally found a little pod in 69fow. Anchored on them and ended up catching 25, but it wasn't hot and heavy. Took a few hours, but we sat on them all day long. Just weren't biting for crap. They shut off when the winds switch from out of the NE. Didn't see another boat catch a fish and they had to be a dozen around us. Tough fishing so far.

Starcraft 75 Posted May 27, 2017 Report Posted May 27, 2017 Yellowpike, you sharing the info? Going out In the morning only place I've caught a few was out of the Catt...... 1
jimski2 Posted May 27, 2017 Report Posted May 27, 2017 The perch are migrating from their spawning grounds now and a good place to try is off Sturgeon Point. The nine mile choke point there opens to sixty miles across the middle lake and they will follow the shale and mud lines as a regular route.Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United
Starcraft 75 Posted May 28, 2017 Report Posted May 28, 2017 I just might try SP next seeing the Catt is very spotty and slow. I have no idea what the nine mile choke point is that you refer to. But thanks for the input..
H20chrome Posted May 30, 2017 Report Posted May 30, 2017 I think he means from Point Abino Canada to Sturgeon Point NY, its a natural choke point in the lake from fish leaving the upper river going west into lake Erie. I assumed the majority of the perch spawned out in that 45-55 foot of water in Erie? Can anyone chime in on where the perch actually spawn?
yellowpike Posted May 30, 2017 Report Posted May 30, 2017 We caught perch on Saturday that were all spawned out and we were fishing 69 ft out of. Catt Sent from my VS986 using Lake Erie United Mobile App
Starcraft 75 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Hey Yellowpike, you must have been one of the four boats that were there with us. We only managed 12 fish, I was in 16' starcraft flying a flag on my antenna. How'd you do?
yellowpike Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 We were in the the old crab boatSent from my VS986 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

yellowpike Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Yes it is very good. Friend of mine Sent from my VS986 using Lake Erie United Mobile App
Starcraft 75 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 One thing is for sure, you's have a good time fishing. How many did you end up with?
