Anglers in smaller boats, even kayaks and canoes, are catching walleye in water 15 feet-deep to 30 feet-deep during mornings and evenings. Most of the medium size to large boats are concentrating on depths of 40 feet to 60 feet. Both drifters and trollers are catching walleye on any of the popular types of lures, and in just about any color pattern you might find in local tackle shops. Maybe the single hottest lure is the new Bay Rat Spoon. Start fishing right above the thermocline.
As it has been for a couple of years, perch fishing has been poor in Lake Erie, or at least most reports are poor. But a general lack of perch anglers makes it relatively difficult to locate perch. Try out of North East Marina in 45 feet to 50 feet of water. Maybe the best nearby perch fishing has been at 50 feet to 60 feet out of Dunkirk by the buoy. For a change, try using nightcrawlers or leeches for bait.
