Walleye Fishing on Lake Erie

 

The Western Basin of Lake Erie's shallow waters attract huge schools of walleye roaming the south-central area. In March, hundreds of anglers seek pre-spawn walleye. Throughout April, the beaches and reefs northwest of Port Clinton  become active as walleye cruise the shallow, sandy bottoms looking for bait fish. Casting bright-colored jigs tipped with minnows are favorite methods for catching some of the year's biggest fish. May sends walleye into deeper water around the reefs and islands.
Often ignored by those but the most seasoned pros, the Western Basin's July and August harvests produce the fastest walleye fishing of the year. It's a baffling trend, but the Western Basin catch-rate (another term for the number of walleye landed per hour) is higher in July than any other month. The average walleye catch-rate during July and August is more than 30% higher in the lake's Western Basin than from the deeper waters making up the Central Basin. More than 90% of the summer catch is taken on weight-forward spinners tipped with worms as anglers cast from drifting boats such as Irish Drifter, Miss Cindy and Waterfox.
