Walleye
Fishing this week was fair to good round Huron with some good fish reported from the following locations.
-Huron Lighthouse west to the Sawmill Humps in 18 to 24 FOW. This area produced with Reef Runner , Deep Rippers, and Hot n Tot programs. Fished 35 to 40 feet back on Inline Boards. Blue, Black, and Silver colors were the best.
-Cranberry Creek area is still producing fish. Trolling this same program. In 16 to 24 FOW.
-Offshore; I personally fished this area Monday and found Crawler Harness to be an excellent choice with all but one fish caught on them. My best colors were Pink and Purple Willow Blades with Chrome Beads pulled behind dipsys at 1.7 MPH. This area is offshore and you should use CAUTION when planning a trip to this location. Location N38 W23 was excellent with numbers of fish ranging from 4 to 6 lbs.
Perch
Perch continue to bite very well with bigger fish showing up in the catch.
Areas to consider
-North of the Red Bouy channel marker in 39 to 40 FOW. This area produced bigger fish this week.
-North East of Green Can 28 to 34 FOW. Produced excellent numbers of fish but smaller on average. Expect these areas to get better with bigger Perch on the way.
Bait Availability Good
-Windy conditions for the weekend should keep fisherman close so fish the Cans out Front and stay safe.
