hey we always go to the portage river at the front there are 8 channels. we also fish west harbor and east but have heard east is better alot of large mounth in portage. we just fish with bobber and go about 3 foot deep. good luck and just look out for big boats. enjoy your weekend

Good luck James and be careful out on the big water.
I was thinking of heading to Erie for a few days of perch jerking or maybe try for a crappie or 2 but the little womans wanting to head to Florida again.
I don't know....

if you cross bridge on 2 go north to 163 west and public free ramp it portage acess ramp. go under the rail road and cross bay to portage. head to main lake brings you out to big water. good luck i think its called nettles

we got 18 walleye on Monday with 5 people but the waves were rough in the morning. We got 18 walleye on Tuesday with 3 guys and the waves were much better. Had the limit by 9:30 on Tuesday. Short trip but lots of fun.

You get an opportunity to chase crappie in the harbors or Portage?

**jeepguyjames** · 07-06-2011, 11:56 AM

Chased the perch today, woulda liked to wally fish but the wallys are out pretty far, its a hard ride on my G-pa (80 years old).....got a 4 man limit (120) in 1 1/2 to 2 hours, had a few around 13 inches. Bass fished east harbor for a few hours yesterday, caught a dozen or so, biggest was maybe 3lbs, all on jigs or plastics, scouted some docks to try and shoot tomorrow for crappie. AEF had a good 2 day bag of wallys (texted us a pic).....thanks for the info AEF....any how perch pics below, the one pics 3 generations, have a great one all, God bless.
