Thanks all. We did just ok. Got boat slowed to 1.2 sog on day 2, that helped (was 3ish prior), managed a couple of eaters, nothing special. Yellow and orange stick bait and purple/blue spinner on bouncer worked for us.
Heard a few struck out, some claimed "40 minute" limits, so its all over the place i suppose...
We had most success slightly east of harbor, apx 65 deep

Awesome! Thanks for contributing!
Very easy limits of eyes in Dunkirk. We took my niece and brother this morning. 4 person limit in three and half hours. Threw back a few bigger ones as well. All stick baits, two riggers and six leadcore between three and eight colors. Five to seven were by far the best. Eight rods and that’s all I could keep up with at times. At one point we had six fish on and landed them all. Couple bonus Lakers Too.
I started west in 65 fow around the two water towers near Van Buren. Unfortunately when the wind kicked up we kept trolling west and ended up down about 11 miles. Long chug back. In my 20’ boat, I just can’t control speed pounding into them. Color didn’t seem to matter today, purple, fire tiger, blue, naturals, perch, clown. They all caught. Interestingly enough I didn’t catch anything on riggers with spoons, put a couple sticks on them and we caught 4 or 5 on them after that. I run Renosky and Bay Rats primarily.

Thanks... i think.
Reports dont always contain all pertinent info, like down speed, direction, time, color, location etc.
There are also sometimes things that are out of ones control.
Some of us are only out there with what we have, trying to have a fun time and others seem to take things a little too seriously.....Read the reports and do what they say.... if you can’t catch...then quit fishing....it’s stupid easy right now...

Thanks Marty!
I have had best fishing with crawler harnesses that have a pattern of orange, black and white paint on blades with back side of blade either copper or gold plated. I like to drift with bottom bouncers but if lake goes flat I troll with dipseys. Look through the posts for what settings if you use dipseys. I have found 3 setting and somewhere around 150 to 180 feet of line to work. I play around depending on how close to bottom the marks are. Good luck. They are biting well on all offerings from the reports being posted.

Heading out this weekend during most likely off-hours (mid day, afternoon) with out of town family in for weekend to do some fishing.
Looks like 60-80ft is where we should look straight out of harbor (?).
I dont get out too often (new to walleye fiahing) and have never fished the area before... have lead, copper and down riggers, just not sure where to head, and what colors to deploy to keep my guests interested in fishing.
Any tips on whats worked in last few days would be appreciated.
Looks like a nice weekend - so it'll at least be a nice boat rode if nothing else....

Bummer, hope you get gear back.
I found a dockline at sbh the other day....
At least it sounds like its replaceable stuff, not a handed down rod, or jewelry or other momento....

have the tracks by chance?
-
How are the mounting holes on the muddy creek tracks dimensioned? (center to center distance apart, and hole dia)
Also, are the edges cleaned up nicely / smooth and chamfered/rounded?
They look nice, but not too many pictures on their site - do you have a photo of your setup?

Just wanted to say hello as the newest member of the site.
New to fishing the Great Lakes waters, seeing lots of good stuff and helpful information on here, hoping to learn a lot from you guys!
See you on the boards and maybe even on the water.
