Port Stanley live report

[Tom Cat]

Lines down at 8:30 in 45 feet picked up a rainbow quick and lost at the boat one eye in the box

 

[Tom Cat]

Just landed a doubleheader of big bows which is unusual for me to get them both in three bows in the box and one walleye at 65 feet

Ok

I was surprised we landed our double headers last Saturday, but the way they were smashing those spoons they hooked themselves so good I struggled to get the hook out on everyone we caught lol

Do you normally go straight south of Port Stanley?

 

[lazywave]

Just wondering what the waves are like out there currently. The buoy is showing calm but a decent breeze onshore right now

 

[Tom Cat]

Ended up with three bows lost 2. 2 eyes and lost one still slow fishing except for the rainbow.

Thanks for your live update @Tom Cat from today. I am just curious though,did you catch your rainbow’s & walleye’s by using lead core,or dipsey diver’s,or by using a downrigger? For what I have been reading lately from most of the post’s,the walleye’s & rainbow’s are up high in the water column,and therefore I will likely keep my downrigger at home,and use it more later in the season,when the walleye’s & rainbow’s go deep!! Thanks in advance & enjoy your fish fry.

Was out today in Port Stanley. Caught 2 rainbows, 1 walleye, 1 silver bass. 9am-11am.

Trolling in 44-50ft. Caught them using lead core and dispsy; down at 20-30ft. All on spoons.

Water has been calm all day, still calm now.

I have been using the same program now the last three or four times out I use four dipsies on the inside rods set on one I put out about 70 feet of line on the outside rods set on three I put anywhere between 101 120 feet and troll straight south from 40 to 65 feet and then turn around and head back at 2.2 to 2.5 miles an hour get fairly consistent action nothing on RRF today all spoons Mama drives the boat and I do everything else I hook a lot more fish than I land rainbows I am only about 50% walleyes am probably 75% when it is real calm I will run two mini planers on the outside with about 150 feet out.
