What's up with the Walleye bite

[Kevin J Legg]

Wow, not many reports on walleyes being caught. I haven't tried them as I'm in NJ visiting family but will be home in a couple days and am looking to find some eyes that want to play.

rumor has it cherry island was the hot spot today......slow in black river bay for me today....1 eye 5lb.....2 sheepshead

[Fisherman72]

bottom feeder , how high was the waves today down there ? Marine forcast isn't also right so didn't feel like driving out there today and being too rough to fish!! Thanks

[bottom-feeder]

1 ftrs at 430 am.......2 ftrs at 11 am.......never too rough to fish just gets uncomfortable above 4 ftrs

[Fisherman72]

Yesterday it picked up around noon and was rolling a good 3-4', not very pleasant fishing in that ...

7 walleye for us today in BRB. Everyone was hooking up all morning around us. Probably saw 20 nets hit the water.

[Fisherman72]

Nice catch!! How deep u get them in?

Black River bay is anywhere from 4ft to 36ft. I fish from the last can to the concrete pier on left heading away from river, try the bouys if the wind is out of the southwest from the last can in on either sides, or the north shore start close 10-15 and work out to till you see bait and hooks, troll down to the first point, we had 3 eyes within a hour was going to head back and come through again but blew lower unit. That put the brakes to our eye fishing, I'm on the home stretch with the rebuild, tore off the main shaft.

We took five out of Chaumont Bay yesterday. We fished 6AM till noon. I saw the wagon train next to Cherry Island and chose to avoid it since we were firing rods elsewhere. I would say the bite is on the rise yet. I took a female walleye last weekend that was still full of eggs. Had I known, I would have sent her back. I didn't expect to see that this late. All of my fish yesterday were taken in 20-30 FOW. Very specific depth and colors were consistent.

Looks like the bite is now on in many locations. Also heard Ogdensburg was good.

Three mile bay 30 fow

[guffins fisherman]

Fished 6-11 this AM. Only one eye to show for it all. Chaumont Bay.

[mbald123]

Chaumont Bay this morning too.. 7a.m. to noon. Zero walleye and one bass. Conditions were great thought the walleye bite would be on or even more smallie action. The Bay won today.

[guffins fisherman]

Yup. What with the low clouds and the intermittent rain, I thought the walleye bite would be rampant. Wrong.

Fished up that way with Todd ( bottom feeder) . we did 4. Three around 6 lbs and one a hair under 11

[Landshark]

I forgot to add that all fish were released. Try to do the right thing people

[Kevin J Legg]

Great fish Todd and Mike.

All on big boards

There is a good nite bite as well I managed 3 in 45 minutes 2 nights in a row from set up at 8:45 pulled lines at 10:00.  Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to get out in the mornings or during the day.  I have heard some good reports from BRB.
