Walleye Walleye page 2017


Recommended Posts

We went out of Dunkirk yesterday..started in 65-70fow a few miles east..1 short 'eye...moved NW to 80-95fow...scrounged 6 small keepers and 8 throwbacks...we threw everything at them to no avail. #3 setting 160 back on dipsy was most productive. We did not mark a lot of fish...our friends went W down to the shoals and only managed a couple shorts, 1 keeper...they moved out deeper to the N off shoals and were not marking hardly any fish....SLOW DAY all around!!

Anybody got a line on where they went???

Last summer while fishing out of SP we had a young DEC employee requesting to take measurements & scale samples from our catch..we agreed and while doing so, I asked if he had any knowledge of the ongoing walleye movement tracking study...he laughed and said he was very involved with it. Of course I asked if he could share any details..he laughed again and said "well...we had 1 walleye that traveled from near Buffalo across the whole lake to the western basin in 24 hours"...fish confirmed to be live.... Wow!!! I thought that really highlights some of our fishing experiences....here today gone tomorow!

great info guys keep it up. that's what this site is all about.
I fish central basin and these guys won't tell you anything. and if they do it's a lie.

Question: what size and color Dipsy Diver would you guys recommend that I buy. I am getting a couple trolling rods & rod holders for my boat and would like to try dipsy divers. (Up to this point I have simply been drifting with bottom bouncers / harnesses on spinning rods.) Thanks.

Fished the Catt. all day yesterday on a friends boat. Went to my numbers where we did well 2 days ago. Only got 2 good eyes. Tried everything 60_85FOW. Fish, and bait were scattered all over. No big schools. It's been a strange year. Between the weather, and the unpredictable bite it has been hit, and miss.

  I have caught 3 lip tagged fish over the years  2 from Ohio & 1 from Michigan & received the info. on all 3 all interesting.     We fished Ontario yesterday & got 5 of 8 steelies & coho.  They sure fight better than a walleye.    If a walleye fought like one of those we would have the perfect eating & fighting fish!
