  1. Thanks for the report Les. I’m hoping to get out there a couple times this fall. Love it in the fall
  2. By the way, how do you tell the age of a king? We caught several that I’d say were 4-6 lbs. Would those be 2 years, 3 years?
  3. Fished iBay 5:30-10:30. 175-225 FOW. Was a little rough at times for our small boat but we managed and it calmed as the morning progressed. All spoon bite, mostly watermelon, mostly riggers and 300 copper. Nothing on divers with FF. Ended up with 13 fish. 7 kings mostly small to medium, best only 10 lbs. Other 6 fish were steelhead, few nice ones. Fleas not to bad.
  4. Fished 6-10:30. 150-200 FOW. 7 for 9, all kings except my first Atlantic (pretty cool). Biggest king 18 lbs. Mostly on riggers down 40-50 ft, with watermelon spoons. They wouldn’t touch green but loved the watermelon. Got a couple on FF too. Don’t forget to replace your snubbers if you use them, lost a fish when this one snapped, was 3 years old. Not sure how long they are supposed to last but I’ll be buying new now
  5. Sounds like a good number of fish to me. We have been going to the Clayton / Cape Vincent area the third week of July the past few years and have had no luck finding walleye.
  6. That is very helpful, thank you. Wrong time of year. Just came back from another 6 hours of no fish. I love fishing, but I’m not willing to fish all night for maybe a fish or two. So what months are the walleye fishing on the river typically the best?
  7. Had one rigger on the bottom. Will put other one down there tonight and try and find those drop offs. Thank you
  8. Fished the channel around Carleton Island from 7:00PM to 11:30PM. 50-100 FOW. Tried 100, 200, 300 coppers, various lead core, downriggers with cheaters and top lines. Speed 1.8 - 2.2 mph. Fished stick baits and a few worm harnesses. Surface temp was 73, about 50 feet down went to 65, about 100 feet down about 60 degrees. Charted some nice bait and fish all over the water column. A lot of fish down deep 60-100 feet. I’m really wondering what type of fish those would likely be? At temps of 60-65 degrees I would not think they are walleye, but not sure what else they might be in the river at that depth. Anyway, all we managed to boat was a perch. Here all week and would like to find some walleye. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
  9. Any info your willing to share regarding your catch would be appreciated. Gonna be on the river this week and have not had much luck with walleye the past couple years.
  10. Heading up to the Carlton Island area next week and planning to bring all of my trolling equipment. In general what depths would I be targeting this time of year for walleye? Riggers, weighed lines? Do they bite during the day or only at night? Any general guidance would be great appreciated.

  12. Fished Braddocks 6:00-11:00. A few kings, steels and one brown. Largest king 15 lbs on FF.
  13. I was out Monday June 20 around Deans and there was some but pretty minor at that point.
