Lake Erie
Early Season-to the West
May finds us in the *CENTRAL BASIN*
By May 1st. Eyepopper moves to Lorain Harbor (Central Basin Lake Erie, Lorain, Ohio) which is our home port for the bulk of the fishing season. Here we fish the months of May, June and July for Walleye, Yellow Perch, and Smallmouth Bass. Occasionally, we hook up with a few steelhead during the last part of June and quite a few in the month of jJuly.
In September we prepare for the fall perch run where limit catches can be boated in minutes and smallmouth bass fishing along the shoreline can be hot and heavy. Trophy walleye come cruisin' back from the deep cool waters of the Eastern basin on their way to the West where they will spend their winter.
We expect the walleye numbers to be as good as last year and the walleye size should be even better!!
Eyepopper begins its season in early April as the boat hits the water near the Western end of the lake. Pre-spawn and post-spawn walleye, yellow perch, and occasionally some smallmouth bass get our season started. Sandusky Bay is our starting point as we work the island and reef areas near Sandusky, Port Clinton, the Davis Bessie power plant, Kellys Island, the Bass Islands under the shadow of Perry's Monument. Slow fishing, whether it's drift, vertical jigging or slow trolling can produce some monster trophies.Eyepopper is planning to be in Lorain the months of May, June, July, September and October. We plan to be in Olcott, NY in August fishing lake Ontario for Salmon and Trout.
