They were definately mayfly. I don’t expect a big hatch this early.I don’t think there is a lot of baitfish yet, at least I haven’t seen it. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Trying to get an Oneida thread going. The past few weeks I have stayed close to home in Cleveland. Steady shallow bite with larger fish in the before dawn period. The main basin mud flats are holding plenty of smaller fish.This morning a steady pick of suspended fish( 20 down over 40 fow). Turned around and set the electric on auto over the same course at .3 with a bottom scratcher and 1/2 crawler on slow death rig and jigged a rap. One on the rap and constant action on 1/2 crawler. Live well full of larvae. Curious about what’s going on in gravel on west end. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Fished the north shore from an hour before light till 9:00 and caught plenty trolling Berkeley flickers and rapalas in 10-12 fow. Good luck. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

Every fall I switch over to large lures on Oneida. The past two years my best lure has been this giant Shad rap (ssr44).17 inch walleyes have no problem hitting it especially after dark. It’s just a bigger target. But what I notice is that most fish are mouth hook on the front treble. They are hitting it mid lure from the side. Is this to avoid the spiny dorsal on the larger perch? Anyone else running into this on oversized lures. You can clearly see where they are putting their teeth on this lure. Just looking for input. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

Makes sense. I think I’ll tie some up tonight. The Lake Erie boys always seem to be one step ahead. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United mobile app -
Massive fly hatch on the lake, but doesn’t seem to have put the bite off much. This 25” fish was puking 6” perch up in the well. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I think you are right. Took a closer look and I believe they are larvae. That’s one way to get big. Avoid lures. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

Ran the same program with decent results. The two largest fish had nothing but shrimp in their stomach Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

Just my 2 cents and everyone has their own style, but I would invest in a set of inline planer boards. I prefer wide wobble baits like reef runner, bomber, cordell stingers, and bay rat xld.Well tuned and fish the marks and I always run one high in the water column. My biggest fish almost always come on the highest line, even in deep water.even in 40 fow I will run one line in the 12-14 ft range. 30 years of meticulous notes on Oneida has also taught me that faster trolls produce bigger fish. So I would start there for what it,s worth. Like I said everyone fishes there own way.also might want to download the precision trolling app. The dive curves are very close.
