Title: Lade Erie 2025 Walleye season begins
Post by: Christopher M Songer on May 09, 2025, 11:46:47 PM
Splashed the boat on Wed and went straight out to the lake for a shakedown and a little fishing. The dock was already set with bumpers, dock lines, water and elect. Boat ran great, recent rain has muddied the lake, but we marked and caught a few walleye. Overall, a great day.

E. P. We only eat the walleye. Never any bass. Walleye, Yellow Perch and Salmon just taste so much better.

Yes if you want to go on a diet due to parasites.

Shibs- torrential rains the week before had muddied the lake near and far with 4 to 5 inch visibility at best. That Reef Runner was 120' back to an inline board. My fish were on a Dipsy set at #2, 53' back and stinger spoon with pink stripe took 2 fish.   

Handy- spent 8 days in Vancouver April 14 to 22. 2 nights in Whistler but no visit to the big island!

Looks like a fantastic outing.  What's the walleye limit over in Ohio?  In Michigan, it's 6.
