WADING TO BLUEGRASS ISLAND IS POSSIBLE

With these cooler nights the river temp is starting to drop. We are still seeing some smallmouth and catfish action all up and down the river. The Maumee is one of the most underappreciated waterways in this part of the state ,,with the tail end of summer upon us its a great time to get out there and do some exploring g. Stop in the shop and we can give you some great ideas as where to fish, kayak, hike and of course get a little muddy. Also per customer requests we are working on a river map of the local areas, give us a week or so and we should have it available.
LAKE ERIE
Western Basin
Walleye
Where: There have been very few reports of walleye fishing in the western basin and most anglers are targeting yellow perch. A few walleye have been caught northwest of West Sister Island and nearshore off Magee Marsh Wildlife Area.
How: Most walleye have been caught by trolling with crankbaits.
Yellow Perch
Where: Yellow perch fishing is improving with most fish from ranging from 6.5 to 9 inches. Fish have been caught at the Toledo harbor light, West Sister Island, West Reef (west of North Bass Island), Niagara Reef, around Rattlesnake Island and Middle Bass Island, south of South Bass Island, south of Kelleys Island, and off Lakeside and Marblehead Lighthouse.
How: Perch spreaders or crappie rigs with shiners fished near the bottom produce the most fish.
Smallmouth Bass and Largemouth Bass
