Captain Ron Rusch Fishing Report

FANTASTIC WALLEYE FISHING Friday August 16th 2002 FANTASTIC WALLEYE FISHING Friday August 16th 2002 The early morning southwest wind brought Rory one of his best days on Lake Erie. This was also his fifth attempt to catch a walleye on a Lake Erie charter. The group was new to the "SEAWOLF" but caught on quick to the hands-on self fishing technique used aboard the "SEAWOLF" . Within minuets the jigging action paid off. The walleye started to bite and the rods were a bending. Crawler harnesses were the bait of choice tipped with a big crawler. Rory not only caught his first walleye, but the biggest and also the most. This was one day he will never forget. The hole group had quite a day on Lake Erie catching 24 walleye, smallmouth, perch, catfish and those world class sheephead. The shoreline storms made for excellent weather conditions this day. The week has seen many nice catches of walleye and smallmouth. Their is a lot of satisfaction in seeing youngsters catching their first walleye. The hole family had some good fishing. First Trench Walleye Good catch of walleye on the north side of the trench, These guys also caught 64 good size perch fishing for walleye. The perch just seem to be everywhere. Yes mom, its my Walleye! Source: Captain Ron Rusch August 18, 2002 at 19:53:03
