4/6/15, Lake Erie, Bolles Harbor, Fishing Report

After a blustery, tough fishing day yesterday, we hit the water this morning with frosty, overcast conditions and thankfully light winds. The first area we fished this morning was slow, so we picked and moved deep into Ohio waters where we located a big school of humongous walleyes on the feed. I quickly fine tuned the spread to a hot setup pulling all Thundersticks about 12' down and those suspended fish gobbled down those lures big time. My customers ended up limiting out on walleyes that averaged about 9 pounds with all but two exceeding 28 inches. Our biggest walleye today was an eye-popping, 12.75 pound giant. The total catch overflowed a 120 quart cooler with solid fish. The area we fished is one my my most consistent trophy walleye spots and the area gets extremely light fishing pressure this time of the year with no boats in sight of us all day there. The water temp was about 39 degrees when we started and it warmed to 40 by the time we departed the fishing area at about 3:00 p.m.. We had to keep the speed slow today with 1.1 to 1.2 mph being best. Both gold/black and gray/scale patterns were on fire about equally. I tried some Rouges and Husky Jerks but they failed to produce any bites. I still have some Lake Erie openings for next week, in case someone wants to get in on this awesome fishing which is the best I've seen in years there.
