Shaun_300 Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I headed down to the shores of the Ottawa River last night to fish off the shore. I usually just get rock bass and once it gets dark, the channel cats start biting. Well, i expected that there should be walleye hanging around the area, it seems like a good spot for them since it's right where the Madawaska River flows into the Ottawa River. Anyways, I went down right before dusk and ended up getting two walleye! I think that's going to be tonight's dinner. Then I'm headed back down there to see if I can get some more! Sorry, no pics folks, but if I tie into them again tonight, i'll be sure to get some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted August 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! Just got back from fishin, man it was so windy I couldn't cast my jig more than 15 feet from shore! No luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaDeerHunter Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! Sounds like fun. And casting in wind is no fun at all. It does make it interesting though. Be sure to post pics if you get into them again. Good luck, and have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldawg Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! That spot should turn into a hotspot when they start feeding up for winter in a few months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! Shaun, stay late tonight, well after dark. I bet they're coming in there to feed on shad right around dark. If so the'll be there all night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted August 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! I'm gonna header on out there again tonight, there isn't much wind tonight. Muggs, I got there right before sunset and I got the two walleyes right before dark, no luck at all after dark for the walleyes. As soon as the walleyes turn off, the channel cats start hitting. I'm givin' er another go tonight, I'll be sure to take the camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggs Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Re: Got into the walleye\'s last night! Well, any luck? What were you throwing at them? It's really cool here in the fall and spring, the Erie Walleye can be caught right off the breakwalls with any shallow diving crankbait. They're all big fish for some reason, smaller ones are always over 4 pounds, and fish over 10 are common, it's a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
