Sandusky Bay Bassin' (Lake Erie)

[rrw4258]

Got out onto Lake Erie Yesterday, and did a number on the largemouth's... I fished the Sandusky Bay, from about 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Picked up 19 largemout.... the smallest one of which was 16" and the biggest was a 22 1/4" lm bass... weighed about 5 or a little more pounds... My final bag for the day would have been about 17 to 18 pounds... I am planning on fishing the FLW and BFL Tournamnets next year that launch out of Sandusky, as co angler...
There was a tournamnet Sat. and Sun. and the final weight for co angler was 14 - something the first day, and i think 31 something to win for coangler, it was a little over 2,000 dollars... and at only a 100 dollar entry fee, thats not bad... Well though i would share a day of success with you guys, and hope you all are catching them as well....

great day R... temperatures there as hot as here? 80's for two weeks? What were you catching them on? How deep were you fishing? just curious... always like a good fish story!

If I'd have to take a guess, I'd say he's using a pumpkin green tube. That's all I ever hear about people catching bass on Lake Erie with. Doring my clubs tournament on Erie, I came in 6th with 2 largemouths and a big smallie. The 3lb 7oz smallie came on a white spinnerbait, as did a Largemouth. The other largie came on a Zoom drop shot worm.

was cathcing them (all largies) in shallow water along rip rap banks in the Sandusky bay... water temp was 67 degrees, and I was getting them on a Chartreuse/White Strike King Premier Plus Spinnerbait, (3/8), and on most big fish (19"+) came on a Mann's Baby 4 - in crome black...
