    I hear ya fishmaster- my fishing log agrees with you to but last time out offshore was smoking and the Saturday before Labor Day with 2 tournaments going on and Combat fishing - not how I wanted to spend the day relaxing with my dad. I like to avoid as much pack fishing as I can.I will take your advice for tomorrow AM- Thank you

    Thanks for that inside report - I would really like to leave those steelhead alone if I can- gotta put a lot of time in reviving those chromers before release. I’m stilling gonna give it a shot inside early then head north as the sun gets high. I will report. I got some first timers fishing Monday so I want to check out as much water as possible before then. It seems most stay pretty quiet when it comes to reports from the West end.
    Many props to the Rochester and to the East end guys. They always have some kind of report to read.

    Started offshore off Wilson in 400’ and trolled north to 480- green water disappeared as we went north-did nothing but small kings and many steelhead. Bite was deep 80-125’. Pulled rods and ran to 400’ Off Olcott and trolled SW back toward Wilson. Marked a fair amount of bait and hooked our only 2 majors in 300 and 350’ water. Both FF- atomik habanero 90 and 115 down. Both came unbuttoned 🤬. Steelhead bite continued 50 to 80 down until we quit at noon. Every spoon I put out took steelhead- bright and dark-Great day just the wrong species for me- I’m guessing we took 20 steelhead-We are so spoiled here! Tomorrow in the AM I will be trying inside.

    Planned ongoing offshore but strong south winds put the kibosh on that. Worked 95-120’ of water. Took 6 browns, 5 skippies and lost the only major we hooked. All fish came off rigger set 5’ off bottom. Major hit a dipsey 165 back. All fish on spoons. Warrior black pearl UV continues to be my best producing spoon. FF and meat never moved. Took my buddies daughter out for her first Lake O trip and we let her reel all fish in. She had a blast and thankfully handled the chop with no issues. Add another fisherwomen to our ranks- she can’t wait to get back out. Weeds were a bit of a hassle. Had to check rods often. IMG_1499.JPG

    Mid Summer Perch

    Anyone finding any perch on Erie? Haven't been out since spring for them heading out tomorrow out of the Catt to try and find some. Just seeing if anyone has caught any or marked any decent schools while walleye fishing.

    You are certainly going to have better luck on LEU even though People are fairly tight lipped on LEU also. It will also keep you from catching a little hell about posting about Erie on Ontario site.I have not fished perch this year at all but Sunday we marked some perch schools in 68-73’ of water just east of the Catt.

    Erie

    in Walleye

    Posted

    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

    Need tackle locators

    in Tackle and Techniques

    Posted

    There always seemed to be an endless supply of gear we use trolling to be found locally at local tackle shops, Dicks and even sometimes Cabelas.  Lately I am having trouble finding some of the usual stuff.  Anyone have a lead on...
     
    **Berkley Big Game green 30lb spools
    **Clear Walker Deeper Divers (did Dreamweaver buy them out?)
    ** 1/2" glow lure eye stickers
    ** Large flasher eyeball stickers

    If you want local call Captain Bobs in Clarence to see if he has what your looking for before making the drive- they pack a lot of tackle in that place. Great place run by a great guy

    Great job- was an incredible day of fishing. Dock etiquette and Wilson are never in the same sentence- someone should be in the pay building at all times instead for just collecting money from the early morning fisherman launching. I try my best to get back before the pleasure boaters hit the water- it can be a free for all-launch and loading signs on the perspective launches means nothing to people and that’s what causes the chaos. I told that guy in the small pontoon to slip it in while I was going to get my trailer - I assumed common sense would kick in and he would move it to the other side of the dock then load up his gear but he took his grand ole time until my father straightened him out- my bad for trying to be a nice guy. common courtesy sadly is a thing of the past

    The stellar offshore bite continues for salmon- fished with my dad from 7-1 and we got a workout today! Many doubles and chaos with only two of us-hooked over 20 kings today. Bite was deep with our 115 rigger tearing it up with a Warrior UV black pearl spoon. It took 75% of our fish. FF with green crinkle did the rest. 460’ of water and deeper. Some real decent size fishIMG_1475.JPG

    Hell- no problem
    yes that is depth I’m talking about- my boat is in Wilson so I can’t give you coordinates until the weekend. I’m guessing around 12 Miles

    Channel 68 and 72

    Nothing to avoid that far offshore except freighters[emoji16]

    Feel free to shoot me a PM while in town. By the end of your trip there should be some inshore staging kings. The offshore bite will continue to the end of the season- good luck and safe travels

    Thanks Brandon- been doing the walleye most of the summer- it’s good to be back where I belong with screaming drags. I couldn’t put another walleye in my freezer or all the old timers freezers I try to fill for them. The walleye numbers in Erie is astonishing!! It will be salmon full time now until seasons end
