DID YOU KNOW? Some land areas in nearby Ohio counties have permitted septic waste (i.e. Land Application) dumping? Many septic pumping companies dump their trucks in these areas. It’s easy to see this practice is never sanitary, plus is very hazardous to wildlife, hunters and outdoor sports enthusiasts.

Lake Erie Walleye - July 26, 2019
Hello fellow fisherman!
Fishing remains the same. Incredible. From east of Kelly’s Island to Conneaut – it’s WORLD CLASS FISHING.
Fish have moved a mile or two north of where we have been fishing. Run the same programs…just run them about 5-ft deeper in the water column. Bump your speed up to 2.4 to 2.8 mph and hold on. Till next time. Good luck and good catching.
