Chautauqua Lake


Walleye are still hitting on worm harnesses but action has slowed, according to Mike Sperry at Chautauqua Reel Outdoors. If you locate healthy green weeds, the fish are there. Slow troll around 1 mph. Colorado and willow leaf blades are good bets with hammered brass a staple. There are plenty of perch in 20 feet of water in the north basin. Small ones are abundant with a few bigger ones mixed in. Jig and crawler or vibes will work. Musky is still good casting and trolling. Cast jerkbaits tight to and over weeds in 8 to 12 feet of water. Black, black and orange, and perch colors are working. Work them fast to trigger a reaction strike according to Sperry.
