Great day out of buffalo today.  Everyone had fish and we boxed out. From 40’ out to the fence.  Lead core and harnesses worked the best.

Erie is simply amazing this year. another two man limit in less than two hours. We were out of the Cat in 70+ . Harnesses out 5 and wire dipsey setting 3, 90' back did the trick.

Well been in Northeast last 2 days slow for me. Sat kept 3 eyes trolled 50-70 few shorts pulled early as little one got sick. Sunday trolled 80-100 kept 3 again couple shorts....but the Lakers wanted to play so spent hr or 2 with gambler rig on dipsys and couldn't keep them in the water landed 4 hooked 5 and lost that one right at net. Would have been a boat best.
Couldn't get him to fit in net knocked hook out he was floating so pulled all my gear and circled back on him. Got him in net but as soon as I flipped him right side up he was gone back to the bottom. Bent my walleye net almost clear in half today will be putting the salmon net in the boat from now on. Not a great walleye trip but man the Lakers bite was awesome will be doing that again

Pic Laker went 11.11 landed didn't weigh the others but id guess they went 7-8 easy. The one I lost looked and felt bigger than the 18lb I got earlier this season.Snapchat-1895725720.jpgIMG_20180805_073248.jpg

Had the same experience with a Laker on LakeO, walleye nets are not big enough for those lakers, biggest fish I ever saw, lost it  for my girls after 30-40 minuets of reeling the knob busted on my okuma reel they got it in I just could not get that big **** in the net!! Congrats to you guys with the eyes!! As it was next to nonexistent “walleye fishing” on the big pond hoping for a better fall bite!! You guys really did awesome!! Keep at it

Yeah was brutal 25 min fight for the wife to watch it swim away. I did everything I could to try and boat it. Felt good to reel in fish that you could tell were on the line lol.

All I can say is wow! If you have never been to Erie, make it a point to go. Anywhere between Sturgeon and Barcelona has been loaded with eyes. We got our 6th limit in a row today for four people by noon. Simply amazing.

The amazing part about Erie this year is that people are taking limits along the length of the lake from Ohio thru NY waters. That is an amazing amount of fish.

I smoke them as well. If you remove all the fat and the dark meat from the skin side. You can eat them breaded. They are comparable to brook trout.

We fished out of Cattaraugus Creek yesterday and kept 18. 72 - 78 FOW. Everything(spoons / sticks / harnesses) worked, but we probably took the most fish on sticks. I don't think walleye fishing gets any better than it has been.

We fished out of the Catt yesterday also- same program. My intent was to fish salmon for the remainder of the year but the weekend winds on Ontario forced me back to Erie- it is really stupid easy to box out this year on Erie. Anyone who wants a nice walleye fry should hit it up at least once, not a lot of bigger fish but endless 15-20” fishIMG_1483.JPG

They were still out there today. Stupid easy fishing.  Too bad the weather looks bad for the rest of the week, but these fish should still be here all of September.

Well today was last day on Erie for me. Boat is back in driveway prepping for Sept 8th trip back to Ontario till the end of season. We crushed them again 3-5 foot waves with the 20+ wind today but boated our 3 man limit in under 3 hrs. All 19-20" eyes....only could run 3 rods

Ready for some fighting fish!!!
