Chautauqua Lake

 

Capt. Mike Sperry with Chautauqua Reel Outdoors reports that walleye and musky action is still going strong. For walleyes, worm harnesses trolling at 1 mph along the weed edges in the north basin is a good starting point. Experiment with different blade colors to figure out a pattern on any given day. Jigging also will produce some ‘eyes. In the South Basin, try using Hot ’N Tots off lead core line or a three-way rig with a drop lead. Muskies have been hitting jointed or smaller Shad-style crankbaits in the North Basin casting or trolling. Use a Tuff Shad, Leo Mojoe and jointed Stalkers to take fish. Casting 6- to 9-inch jerk baits can work well for you according to Sperry.
