FISHING TIPS/TRICKS
|
- The Hot Spot
for Walleye on the Central Basin this year is North-East out of
the Chagrin River only a few miles out on the lake in 35-52 feet
of water plant. This season has already provided
many trophy walleyes. Are biggest this season
weighed in at 13 lbs and measure 33 1/2 inches long.
- JUMBO
Perch are also being caught in 30-36 feet of water.
Limit catches with plenty of perch in the 13-15 inch
range!

-
These
trophy walleye were caught fishing in only 24-31 ft. We used 10' and 20' jet divers
with scorpion spoons and worm harnesses with leads in
the range of 50-90' feet.

- These
Steelhead (Lake run Rainbow Trout) were caught using downriggers and
directional diver program. In fact, it was nearly impossible to
keep lines in the water during the peak of the
steelhead season. If you enjoy pure steelhead excitement request
a time during the July and August months!

- The Spoons
that worked best year round: Watermellon colored (half orange with
black spots/half green) Scorpion and/or Pro King spoons; black
and purple colored Scorpion and/or Pro King spoons. Confusion
and Shrimp colored spoons also worked well.
- Yes,
we name our spoons. Here are some other names: Shrimp;
Bloody Nose, Monkey Puke, Rainbow Trout, Fire Tiger,
Superman, Halloween, and Bumble Bee). Can you guess the
colors?
|
- Big Walleye
were taken off planer boards using jet Divers or small dipsy's
at 100-150 feet back. Big Dipsy's were catching fish 100-150 ft back
on a 3 setting, 80-125 ft back on a 2 setting, and 75-100 ft back on a 1
setting. All these techniques are taught to our
customers. We have everyone actively participating
in handling rods and setting lines. At the end of
the day you will understand all this terminology and go
home sounding like a PRO.
|
- The Captain
trolled at 1.5-2.0 miles/hrs. It helped to use sea anchors to
slow the boat down.
|
- Downriggers
were targeted for depths that produced great steelhead
action.
|
- Average
Walleye size was 5 - 9 lbs. We took a number of walleyes
that were over 28" and 10 lb plus. Captain
Bernie's experience on the lake has resulted in at least one Fish Ohio Walleye or Steelhead pure trip
|
- Average
steelhead size was 6-12 lbs. Biggest Steelhead was
34" and 15 lbs
|
|
|
- Small Mouth
Bass were taken in good numbers off the bubble near the Perry
Power Plant early Spring. Bass were caught using either live
minnows
or Berkley Power Bait fished just off the bottom!!

- Stay
tuned for more reports as we continue the 2003 fishing
season! Tight-lines!
