Heading to Lake Erie Sunday!

[keisbs]

FredG20x2 and I are heading to lake Erie (ruggles reef area) and hope to get some of those whole class smallies. If anyone has been there lately and has suggestions, I am listening

Can't give you any suggestions on fishing Mark...just keep your eyes on the weather. Erie can get...as you well know...very nasty at times.

Talked to the guys at Cranberry marina and they said it shouldn't be too bad 10 to 15 knot west winds 1 to 2 footers ... plus I am less than 1000 yards from the marina ... if it gets too rough we will trailer over to East Harbor (protected) .... I hear the largemouths are jumping in boats over there.... will post tomorrow night our results.

Trip canceled ... 21 knot NE winds gusting to 30 .... staying home to fish for 12 inchers instead :(

Probably a very wise move!

I have been fishing lake erie the last 3 weekends fish are spawning and shallow.Try jerkbaits in 10-15 feet on rock reefs.And drop shots on the walls.
