Pretty good fishing this past week. And really big fish too! After loosing last Sunday to the weather and fishing in some pretty snarly water on Monday, I would have to say that the rest of the week was very pleasant and I was very pleased with our efforts over the past week. Low fish count for the week was 15 and the high was around 30 with most days seeing us well into the 20's. But the size of the fish has been what has impressed me the most. Just today I had a guest land back to back a 12 1/2 lb. and a 11 lb. Walleye ! One for the record books and certainly both fish of a lifetime for even the most seasoned of Lake Ere veterans. On Friday we also had yet another 11 pounder that was going to get a free ride to the taxidermists ! Pretty amazing stuff
The Walleyes are now seemingly starting a slow march into the deeper waters right now. And "The Trophy" has been in hot pursuit ! Best depths this past week for us have been anywhere from 52 to 64 foot of water, The fish are starting to drop down a bit in the water column as well. Best lead lengths have been anywhere from 90 to 150 back off the big Planer boards with the #40 Jet Divers. It seems like the more colors you have in your spoons, the better they are working right now. But then again our 12 1/2 pounder today hit just one of my old stand bys, an all gold Savant Spoon, fished back 90 foot on a 3 1/2 setting on the starboard side Dipsy. As soon as I passed the rod off to whoever was up , the last thing that I said was "WOW, this is gonna be a monster ! " And it was, LOL !
Still no sign of any Trout this summer. Kinda weird. It does not break my heart although quite a few of my guests really hope to hook up with one of these as well on their fishing excursion. Most hook ups result in some kind of havoc ! I can understand and appreciate everyone's desire though. It does add an element of excitement ! I guess it doesn't matter much though for now . Until we move out even further where they may be lurking, I don't really expect vey many, if any actually. Junk fish such as Sheephead and White Perch have not been overwhelming yet here either although we are starting to see more and more with each passing day. Water temps have been climbing rapidly and nothing spurs the crappola fish on more then warm water. It certainly keeps us busy at times...
So we have a full schedule for this coming week but still have 3 days available yet for the remainder of this month that I hope to fill. As of right now, I have Thursday June the 24th open and then the last week of this month we have two dates still available as well, June the 29th and June the 30th. A Tuesday/ Wednesday... Hopefully someone will grab these these prime dates and help keep "The Trophy" where she belongs, out on the water hunting for these HUGE Walleyes ! You can't catch them just by reading my fishing reports ! Give me a call and lets team up !
