We fished out of the Catt yesterday afternoon. Managed to get 3 and lost a good one. Marks were pretty good in 62 to 65 fow. Got the ones that would bite on harnesses.
Some of my best days on Erie have been "rod-in-hand" drifting bottom bouncers and crawler harnesses. Need enough wind to do it... usually 1-2 foot waves.
Great pictures. Impressive bows.
I did get out there Tuesday evening but mainly a recreational boat ride with family. Pulled 2 leadcore lines with spoons for an hour with no hits. No fleas at all!
Went out of the Catt. Caught 5 eyes, 1 short. 1 yellow perch and a bunch of silver bass. Trolling harnesses on leadcore. Wind was out of northeast and waves were bigger than the forecast. Nice evening and sunset.
