Ten Percent Posted July 23, 2017 Report Posted July 23, 2017 We fished from about 6:30 until 1PM out of SP. 68 - 74 fow...... 1 nice 7 lb fish, and one at about 16 " and we lost another big fish at the back of the boat,..... we also got 10 or 11 14/15" fish that were released. We trolled harnesses, spoons, sticks, and took fish on all..... divers, LC, riggers all took fish.... lots of sheepshead too. Very nice day to fish..... light wind, and not smoking hot. Lots of fish, just couldn't get the quality......for the most part, fish were within 5' of the bottom....... Nice report...wish I was on Erie today..work E work..busy bee..next weekend though..Larry..you better have em lined up..LolSent from my SM-G900V using Lake Erie United Mobile App
ws6rufus Posted July 23, 2017 Report Posted July 23, 2017 Fished Sturgeon Point Sun 6:30am-12:00pm. Very few boats, probably because of the east winds. Headed West 65-80ft. (4) 2-4lb, (2) 4-6lb, (2) throwbacks. 8 color picked up (4), 4,5&6 color also took fish. Downriggers near bottom & 10 color got squat. Black/Purple, Black/Pink harnesses were best. Not one garbage fish. Found a planer board floating which is now waiting to be picked up by the person who wisely wrote his name on it.

dukhnter8 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Posted July 24, 2017 Went out of Dunkirk Saturday morning. Kept 8, couple of 7 lbers. Then a mix down to 15 inchers that were thrown back. Got a 15 lb laker also a few silvers and sheepshead, heading out we were marking fish all over mostly near the bottom but some were suspended. Best action was 70-75 fow, 65 down. Blue chatterstick was hot bait, also pink and black harness was also good. Laker was on dipsey 200 ft, 1.5 setting with harness. Temps at probe were 69-72. Best action was 71 degrees.

Pequod1 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Posted July 24, 2017 Great reports. Wish I was out. That laker is a good indicator of temp. About how deep do you think it runs at that setting? I have used a 1 1/2 setting down 170 with some success.
dukhnter8 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Posted July 24, 2017 I'm thinking it was pretty close to 70 ft we were in 71 fow so guessing that since we got the laker it was close to the bottom. I have the chart in my boat. I can check for sure when I get home. Were went getting any action on it so I was shortening and lengthing the line out to see if I could get something going on it as well as changing the harness. At one point I had a 6 rod set out and we had all but one in from getting fish. 2
Ckawski Posted July 24, 2017 Report Posted July 24, 2017 Idk exactly where u were fishing but there was a vein of cold water that moved in 75 ft of water that was 58 degrees on my probe probably 400 yds big or soSent from my VS990 using Lake Erie United Mobile App

mostlymuskies Posted July 25, 2017 Report Posted July 25, 2017 I'm not having any luck getting low enough waves or good wind direction for taking out Ten Percent! This has been a rough year for consistency with all the weather changes.Sent from my SM-G930V using Lake Erie United Mobile App
