Live2fish85 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 Got out to Lake Erie yesterday for some smallies and the bite wasn't bad but not the best we got around 20 each in a few hours but pulled in some nice ones to my friend got one over 5.5 lbs and I got one just under 5 that was the two biggest of the day. I don't mind slower days of fishin when it's the big one hitting. My friends PB My big one of the day
ld17 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 We were just out there the other day. We lost a few hogs. Good going.

Live2fish85 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks Paul. Like I said before if your ever in this area and want to fish Lake Erie let me know.
daryl0815 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 Nice fish man, holy crap, erie looks like glass in those pics!
misfish Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 Very nice bronze backs. Glass water to boot. SWEET.
Joeytier Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 Hogs! You got those big boys dialed in. Nice goin'
Live2fish85 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Posted August 29, 2011 Thanks guys and yes Erie was like glass it's not to often that happens a few miles off shore but sometimes. I would rather have some wind though I find the bite is better and you don't sweat your off.
ccmtcanada Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 SWEET!!! I'd take a "slow" day like that any day! Great stuff and some real hogs there!
Homer Is King Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 Those are some nice looking fish!! Smallies on Erie are definitely on my "To Do" list. Thanks for sharing!!
grimsbylander Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 Great work! That's the neat thing about Erie, you just never know how big the next bite will be. Congrats!
eman Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 20 fish....with two 5ers.....in a few hours. I'm so jealous!
spincast Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 Nice going! - bet those were a blast getting to the boat

I don't mind slower days of fishin when it's the big one hitting. so you went out saturday? if you don't mind me asking. what time did you fish, and where'd u launch out of? not trying to hack your fishing spots, definately not asking for exact GPS cord's or nothing. I fish erie too, but it's mostly choppy when I get out there.The weather seems hard to predict to me. Edited August 29, 2011 by jayo123456

I fish erie too, but it's mostly choppy when I get out there.The weather seems hard to predict to me. I was out a few different times in the day. I don't launch my boats in the water all summer at my parents. Also if it is choppy out then the spot I go to isn't anything worth risking to get there I am a few miles off shore. I won't give you anymore then that either it's your first post and your asking where to go. Try introducing yourself as most people do here. Lake Erie is full of bass if you fish it enough you will find big ones.
Roy Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 While an introduction is always nice, he's only asking where someone launched from. I don't think that'll really put him onto anyones "secret" fish hideout.

Hey Jayo, You can launch anywhere along Erie's north shore from Port maitland east...Crystal Beach, Port Colborne, etc. right up to and even into the Niagara River. Watch the weather forecast for winds. Depending on your boat, a SW wind is the worse wind and it can get lumpy - fast. There are smallies from 4 feet of water out to 40' so again, it's all about your boat and your comfort level. The eastern basin of Erie is fantastic, pick a spot and go have fun.

Live2fish85 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Posted August 29, 2011 Where I launch is one of the better spots for the bass and it's easy to notice when seeing it, I wasn't trying to be a dick but where I launch really isn't near where I was fishing for those bass and it is a real good spot. If your looking for good bass fishing on erie stay closer to selkirk and area that's where theres alot of structure. The launching part really its hard to even say we launch of a point and just drive the truck and trailer in. There are no launches real close Austins park would be the closest but still far away but theres good bass all over erie.
