** The daily bag limit for walleye on Ohio waters of Lake Erie from March 1 through April 30 is 4 fish per angler with a 15” minimum size limit.**

** The daily bag limit for yellow perch is 30 fish per angler on all Ohio waters of Lake Erie.**

** The trout and salmon daily bag limit is 2 fish per angler. The minimum size limit for trout and salmon is 12”.

** The black bass (largemouth and smallmouth bass) daily bag limit is 5 fish per angler with a 14” minimum size limit.**

Walleye have been caught by trolling crankbaits near “F” can of the Camp Perry firing range and also around Green Island. Rapala deep husky jerks have been the most consistent crankbait. Jigging has been slow as the cold water has delayed spawning activity. Use caution when boating in cold water.
