Grandson and I fished the lake yesterday (friday). We only caught 8 white bass. Caught them on a lindy rig, orange floating jig head tipped with a crawler.
We didn't mark anything on the west side of the lake but, marked tons of fish on the east side. Tried, crickets, worms, minnows, leeches, beemoth and artificial baits. Just could not get anything but the whites to hit.
The past few cold nights have lowered the water temp several degrees.
We had a 10 mph north northeast wind. We dropped anchor in the back water for an hour or so, and I kept an eye on 20 or so people that were fishing the shore along some fallen trees. They weren't catching anything either.
We fished for 8 hours and covered about every decent spot I know of. It was simply a bad day for that lake.
If lake Erie is not muddy, I'm gonna go up there Monday or Tuesday and catch some of them big walleyes
