Saturday's weather was calling 2 foot waves or less and changed Friday night to 3 to 5 feet so we headed for protection from the strong northeast winds and fished between Middle Bass and North Bass. We started trolling pulling Reef Runners on one side (80 foot leads) and
40 Tru-Trips on the other side (40 foot leads). Trolling west to east
produced six fish in about three hours with a speed of 1.6 knots. Only
one fish came on a Reef Runner (Copperhead) and the balance on 40
Tru-Trips with #5 Colorado blades, purple/gold, gold with a red
lightning bolt and gold/bronze. Due to the area becoming congested with
boats we opted to move to Niagara Reef where we fought 5 footers most
of the day. We eventually fished with all 40 Tru-Trips and harnesses.
Color didn't matter but 45 foot leads and a speed between 1.6 to 1.8
produced another 11 walleyes so we finished with 17 for the day. See you
on the water
