Good call @Wave Runner about not going.Those south winds will make it hard to get your boat onto the trailer at the boat ramp,especially at port glasgow and port stanley,unless someone uses stans marina,(port stanley),upriver for protection. Besides,fishing till 10 a.m. till the wind picks up is definitely not long enough of fishing time.The walleye’s are deep,which will also take some time to find them.Hopefully,there will still be better longer fishing days ahead for Lake Erie. ? ???

Looks dicey! If I was off and/or lived closer... I'd probably give, getting a limit before 9:00am a shot! At 9 I'd be rolling up lines and heading straight for harbour! That's if the conditions were becoming as forecasted! Good luck if you do get out! ?

Good luck tight lines

Going to give it a shot, going out of Nanticoke. Will post an update later today.

I have not been out enough times this year and still have that fishing "Bug"....
But that Erie wind is not looking good to me.
However Lake O Fisherman's Pier, West end of the Lake looks pretty good. So we might go try for Bows and whatever else will byte .

Good Luck....But Be Safe!

I’m planning on hitting nanticoke today around 2:30ish as the weekend looks like a wash

It looks like the wind should die down a bit around that time, hopefully the waves cooperate!

I sure hope so brother !!

Went out half a kilometer and turned around in a hurry once we saw the guys in a 26' Trophy ahead of us go pretty much fully airborne. The boat could've handled it but it's no fun reeling in a fish when you need to strap yourself to the boat.
Maybe it'll calm down this aft.

Blown off the water in Port Maitland at 8:30am. Got too rough for us and I’m in a 21 footer. At the ramp fire and rescue was there someone put out a mayday call. Hope everyone is ok Did get 5 eyes in about an hour of lines in time near the fingers. Fish were hugging bottom

That's never good to hear, hopefully they have lifejackets on.

Don’t think I’m going out anymore by the looks of it , only settling down for a bit than back up she goes I’ll save the money and stay at home !

I am hoping to get out sometime Sunday/Monday.

If yay or if nay, the boat is coming out of the water.

I'd really like to add a couple of more fish to the freezer, but have no intention of being foolish.
