Line Dancin Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Well fishing was tough to say the least. We fished from fermi to the raisin river from 17 ft to the border. 3 small walleye for about 200 silver bass for two days of fishing. I haven't hooked that many silvers in years. Sounded like fishing was pretty slow all over in michigan waters. Everyone was complaining about how many silver bass were out there. Two more days than i will be fishing down there for the whole week.
Priority1 Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks for the report Aaron. I heard the silver bass were plentiful this year. Try the night bite. Silver bass usually only feed during the day.
EdB Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks Aaron, appreciate the report. We'll probably be down the first weekend in June so we'll give you a shout.
ALLEYES Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Earlier in the week we did OK in front of Fermi in 17 to 20 fow. Not big numbers but big fish.
N II Deep Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks for the report Aaron. I'm sure it will pick up
Line Dancin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 Earlier in the week we did OK in front of Fermi in 17 to 20 fow. Not big numbers but big fish.Thats what i had heard so saturday morning that where we headed and it was a bust in that are. when we finally did get the one saturday it was in front of sterling. in 20 ft of water on a crawler harness with a gulp night crawler. sunday was the same opnly two were in that same area. I heard last night turtle island area was hot and the dumping grounds were ok. I have to get my ohio license and put in the coordinates for turtle island and try it out.
Line Dancin Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 thanks jon,Al least we were catching something. I had about 50-75 releases out on each board by the time we quit fishing both days. and almost all of those were silver bass. Jimmys prototype JPSlammers took silvers as quick as they hit the water. Two of the walleye were caught on the prototypes.
