Although the action has been long in coming the "eyes" have finally emerged along the shores of the eastern basin on Lake Erie ! Local images to follow . I have spent many of nights along the near shore waters in wait for only a few fish ; but definitely worthwhile ! As any fisherman would do ( fill their freezer first ) ; now it's time to fill you'res ... Reports from near & far are beyond expectations and a glimmer of hope has came to light . The early season was full of wet , cold weather , and murky near shore water clarity that had previously slowed walleye feeding has sub sided .
Fish are starting to accept their fate and are ending up in local coolers ! Images are from May 6- June 5th . The largest being 8lb10 ounce . Take notice to the bonus 18lb channel cat caught trolling near shore lake Erie Waters . This fish tested the limits of my tackle and took 10 minutes to land !
The meal (pictured) is fried walleye fillets (chunk ed) wet rolled in flour , dipped in egg & milk , rolled into saltine crackers / Italian seasoning , and fried at 400 degrees for 7 minutes in vegetable oil . Fish fries are well accompanied by hush puppies by House Autry ( with onion ) seasoning & some tater tots . Lastly pictured is Santa Claus leaving Lake city with a bag full of Erie Walleye , Pymatuning Lake Walleye , and Crappie fillets !
