Thinking of heading out of Dunkirk in the morning if the winds are down. Any suggestion as to where to start and what bait is working best? Thanks will post a report at some point tomorrow.
fished out of Dunkirk this morning with my daughter (first time out with me in her 20 years of her existence) and her boyfriend. We ended up with 10, letting my daughter reel in most of the fish and try her hand at netting. She lost 5, knocked one of mine at the boat and her boyfriend lost 2, plus missed a few hits. But landed a bonus 12 lb lake trout. Should have limited out, but time spent with my daughter was priceless. She had a great time and hopefully she has the itch. Anyways, our best depth was 97'- 103', we used a10 core, riggers at 56 and 58, and dipseys at 165- 170. Fished all sticks, bombers, scatter rap and smithwick rougue 10's.
Fished this morning for 5 hours, launched off Hamburg beach and ran out to 58 - 62 foot of water where you can see the condos. Ended up boating 8 All between 18 - 24 inches, 2 can off riggers at 55/ 56 with purple/ silver and watermelon harnesses, the other 6 came off dipseys (out 130 - 135) and lead core (5color) on bombers in perch color and black/ orange.

Was out this morning, SLOWWWWWW!! only 3 fish, one weighed just over 9 lbs (no we are not in the tournament), nothing on sticks, fish came on different color harnesses and 1 big 5 lb sheepshead. Not sure where all the walleye are?
Got out for the first time yesterday behind the windmills, fished 32- 39 feet of water, manager to get 6 and 1 throwback. We had to work for them. All fish came on harnesses, nothing on sticks or spoons.
Heading out of SBH this weekend for the first time this year and dragging a newbie along with me. I'll take any information or suggestions you can provide, thanks.
Thank you for the suggestions, can not seem to narrow it down to one color. What color Bay Rats work for, I do not have and would like to buy a few. Thanks

Started getting ready for the walleye season, and would like to get everyone's opinion on what brands and colors work for you. I fish anywhere from Buffalo down to Dunkirk. Thanks
Was out yesterday, best screen was in 50 -55 " , not one color worked better than any others, but grren wih some yellow caught the bigger fish. We launched at six, ended at 11:30 with a 3 man limit, we caught fish on riggers, leadcore and dipseys.
We have the Big Jon boards and they do not seem to pull good through the water. Doe anyone have any suggestions as to how to the boards to run better and pull out to the side better keeping the line connected to the mast tought? Thanks
