JayClay Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Heading up to Restoule PP at the end of the month and was hoping to get a few tips on Stormy, Clear and/or Restoule for this time of year I was there on early July for the first time, but had very limited amount of time to fish. The area was nice, so I wanted to try again for a more serious fishing trip. I did well in stormy for Bass but didn't catch any eyes. Anyone ever get any walleye is Stormy? Or is it better to stick to Restoule? I talked to a few people in the park, who pointed me at some well known spots on restoule for eyes, but you had to fish the first hours of the morning or the last hour before dark. Any tips or spots to try that could help narrow down the unproductive water would be a great help! Thanks, Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyb Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) Do you have a boat? How is it equipped? I am pretty sure there is a sizeable population of pickerel that are suspending and feeding on the large schools of bait over deeper water in Restoule. Erie/Quinte tactics should produce some quality fish for you. Also, I would say Stormy is has better variety than restoule (musky, bass, pickerel, trout) Here is a musky from stormy caught by my buddy aaron Edited August 18, 2009 by tonyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bow slayer Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Jay if you want some info PM me. I have been fishing Restoule for over 20 years and know the area and lakes well. There are plenty of walleye to be caught with a little push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayClay Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 BowSlayer - PM sent ... Tonyb - I have a 14' with 25 4 stroke, and bow mount electric ... I know where that Musky was caught ... only a couple weed beds like that on Sotrmy that i found. I was disapointed not to catch a walleye in Stormy ... so i wasn't sure how plentiful they were. All the walleye fisherman that i talked to on restoule only fished the last few hours in the evening. Have you ever caught the suspended eyes in restoule?

tonyb Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I tried...but busted off my dipsy and spoon when I went to change it (kink in wire!) So I spent a total of 5 minutes...marked lots and lots of baitfish out there though! with suspended hooks...worth some time exploring an untouched population of fish. Like you said, the locals anchor off the same spots night after night jigging up the odd smallish walleye...yawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
