Lake Erie is famous for its near-shore smallmouth fishing. Some walleye are caught incidentally by bass anglers, but large numbers of resident walleye haven’t been detected.
“In 20 feet of water, the walleye are mixed in with a lot of bass, perch, sheepshead and other fish,” “Walleye aren’t usually attracted to split-tails and other soft plastics used for smallmouths, and those areas are mostly fished by smallmouth guys. So they didn’t notice there were so many walleye there.”
Fisherman recommended approaching those nearshore smallmouth waters with walleye tactics — trolling or drifting plugs, spoons and worm harnesses.
