I will admit I enjoyed catchin spring walleye in the thames river...I had a circle of fishn buddies back in the 70s and we spent countless hours fishin from shore and trolling in 12 footers down stream in the west lorne area. I am sure some of you old guys remember the action. We had to wait the month closure to spawn and then reopen april 15 from middlemiss to Chatham. Big bend conservation area and up stream to the bridge at 76 hwy was my favourite and normally stacked with pics. We trolled jigs and rapalas (shad raps) and limits were the norm. after the run we fished lighthouse cove and LSC for the post spawn window..yep good eating and offer great LSC action where you can still experience that today....ya 16 lsc pics last thursday
some of the thames shore fishin hot spot nick names were lady fisher or bus turnaround, the (radio) towers, the willows and the pumpkin patch either up or down stream from giels bridge fishin from shore
