Just a heads up for the guys who fish the NE corner of the state. Some really good crappies and walleye are being caught right now. Most people are using minnows for the crappies and trolling flicker shads for the walleyes. I’m using pourhouse custom jigs and nibbles and doing just as well or better than most. Four to fifteen foot water for both.

My brother is looking for a good place in NE Ohio to fish from him kayak. This might work. Thanks.

Micro moved to doing mostly plastics. They got away from the spoons. I resigned my staff position years ago and haven’t been in contact with them. They may have started making spoons again but I’m not sure. www.microspoons.comQuote:

Back at it again today. Got out early and fished a few hours before the wind picked up. Had my 30 over 11” before 10:30. Fish were still shallow and still hitting white twistertails on 1/16 jig heads. Drifted the north end. For you guys down in the southern part of the state, this lake is well worth the trip up north.
Me and a buddy put two limits of eaters in the box in two and a half hours this morning. Caught over a hundred fish . I kept 20. Only two females in my catch. The spawn is winding down now. Be done in another week. Got them in 6ft.

Got these over the weekend in 11’-12’ FOW on the north side southeast of the first island. Long line drifting road runners and bare hook and minnow on top.

That’s what I’m talking about. Nice catch of some nice fish. Glad you had a good time. I casted the weed lines yesterday. Only got one walleye but a few big gills hit my cranks too. I went back in a cove and caught and released close to a hundred small crappies and gills. They hit hairjigs, plastics, and tiny crankbaits. Only three keepers in the bunch but I had a ball catchin them until I got tired. Great time on the water.Quote:

The small crappies were hitting everything I threw at them yesterday. Even got a double.

I love fishing post spawn and for the next few weeks these lakes should be on fire as the fish settle into their summer patterns.
We'll get some of out best catches this time of the year.
I like seeing doubles on hair jigs. I hope to get up that way in the next month to try some of those Yankee Crappie with my brother. [emoji16]

Had another fantastic day on mosquito today. Me and Tim put two limits in the box in 2 1/2 hours. Fished shallow again. They’re still there. Not as many bigger ones as last trip but plenty of 11”ers. Colors changed from then to now but they were still aggressive as all getup. Bite may last another week but not much longer as most were males with their darker colors fading some. Get on em while you can.
Late report. Last Wednesday, two of my brothers and I fished mosquito. My oldest brother wanted to take some fish back home to Florida with him. My youngest brother wanted to have a family fishfry Friday, so we went to work on those fish. I felt sorry for those crappies with the three of us fishing for them. We searched out their hiding places and managed to put 90 good size keepers in the box. Enough for both of them. Great time on the water with them. Hang glided jigs and nibbles in 6 to 11 foot water to get them. Baby shads and twistertails both worked good.
