jimski2 Posted August 13, 2017 Report Posted August 13, 2017 BLACK always works. But it is not hot enough to catch fishermen. 1
Totally Hooked Posted August 13, 2017 Report Posted August 13, 2017 Headed down to Dunkirk again today, started at 7:00 and before 11:00 we caught 26 eyes. Of the 18 we kept a dozen of them were in the 20" to 22" range. A few bigger ones and three around 17" or 18". Four dipsies and two riggers, every one we caught was around 70' down in 90' to 100' fow. Harnesses and sticks on dipseys and spoons on riggers all worked. Another awesome day on Erie. 1
dukhnter8 Posted August 13, 2017 Report Posted August 13, 2017 Hit Dunkirk, 7-1030, got my six. Threw back a bunch of smaller ones, most fish were 16-18inches riggers and dipsey. Most came on harnesses a few on plugs. 75-90 ft, down 70-85. Temps were 65-72 on probe.Sent from my SM-G930V using Lake Erie United Mobile App 1

Riggers with any purple (ish) NK28 gold back did very well, flutter them when you get over some fish especially if they are feeding on bait, worked a bunch of times for us. Purple Bay Rat or Renowski sticks did well today. We have been fishing 6 rods because that is enough to keep us busy. Good luck. 1

Expand I only use wire dipseys because I fish Ontario a lot and there is no way I'd fish braid when the fleas show. Not as big of an issue on Erie, at least from my experience.
