Lake Erie Spring Walleye Hunt: Adapting to Weather on It's Called Fishin'

Hot bite and happy crew! Spring was in full swing as I took Emily out on Lake Erie for a morning charter from Lakeside Marblehead, OH. The day started with some rain, but It's Called Fishin' knows that sometimes the best action happens when the weather's a bit iffy. As the morning progressed, the skies began to clear, giving us perfect conditions to try our luck for walleye and perch.

With our gear rigged and ready, we set out to explore the vast waters of Lake Erie. We employed a variety of techniques throughout the day, switching between trolling, jigging, and bottom fishing to cover all our bases. Lake Erie's known for its excellent walleye and perch fishing, and we were determined to make the most of our time on the water. While we didn't land any trophies on this run, every cast and minute on the water was worth it. The changing weather and our persistence made for an engaging day of fishing, showcasing why Lake Erie is such a popular destination for anglers.

As the day wrapped up, we headed back to Lakeside Marblehead with smiles all around. Even though the fish weren't jumping in the boat, the experience of being out on Lake Erie and trying different techniques made for a memorable outing. It's days like these that remind us why it's called fishing, not catching, and the joy is in the pursuit.
