Shortly after the ice leaves the western basin, we begin fishing for Walleye near the mouth of the Maumee River - a major spawning location for Walleye. This is one time of year when you can catch trophy fish. We fish with blade baits and hair jigs presented slowly to the fish below the boat.

In early May we switch from jigging to trolling. This method allows us to search out Walleye schools and keep the maximum number of lures in the feeding zone. This is also the time of year when Perch fishing begins to heat up.

In 2011, we will be fishing out of Toledo Beach Marina, south of Monroe, through the end of July.
