Ohio Fishing

Headed up to the big lake yesterday w my two of my best friends. We had lots of laughs and got 18 of some real nice eating size walleyes. We went out if cranberry creek and jigged using hair jigs mostly in purple colors. Boat owner and myself got our limit in about 3 hours and other buddy was short by 4 fish so we decided to troll back west toward the ramp to pick up the rest of his fish. Worked out perfectly as we got his last fish straight out from the marina at cranberry. Great time water is getting warm so I think the jig bite is about over with. Took my dad some of the fillets and some yellow sponge morels and that made his day. Catching was a bonus but spending time w friends and sharing the bounty w the person who taught me how to do it made for a great day.

Well done nice bunch of eyes!! I know I should go west 45 min and then launch but I’m a sucker for 10 min to the launch. Fishing’s definitely better a bit west of me. You have a secret jigging technique you’d share?? I Haven’t spent much time doing it.

Tight lines

Just always cast into the wind when drifting and kinda slow on the jigging and if you feel a nibble just point pole towards them it puts it right back in their face. I’m by no means a pro that’s just what works for me m. This trip we used hair jigs and will be switching to crawler harness here soon. Trolling we used bandits 55,45 &35 back in a variety of colors

Thanks! Sounds like the same technique I use jigging and trolling.
