Default Erie 'eyes

fished the Leamington Tourney this past weekend, 31 1/2" won the event. The guy who won only caught 4 'eyes. We ended up with 36 'eyes with the largest being 22". Hot baits were the 800's in Purple Deamon, Toxic Purple Naked and After Burn (candy corn) off the boards. A regular Proking PK 146 Carmel Dolphin was on fire on the dipsys, along with PK173 Purple Nurple on the riggers........thanks for your info.

Sounds like a good day. Too bad yours were small. Good eating size though!

We had a great day, rain and wind all day. Just picked away at them.
Fished out of a Wellcraft 29 Coastal, nice platform to fish from, especially in inclement weather. Not use to cozy conditions on the F-20.

I'm assuming you stayed on the Canukistani side all day?

We stationed on Thursday afternoon and pulled out Sunday afternoon. Just a beautiful port, well space is awesome, great staff and a gorgeous town. Hoping to hit Wheatley some time next week, they have a tourney starting this weekend. Going to give the green 800's ago once this wind settles down.

I always thought Leamington was a great little getaway spot. Has a nice "towny" feel to it. If you're into tourneys, have you ever been on this site? http://www.wbsa.us

Nice haul of walleyes!

We have them in some of the mountain lakes down here, but not that big.

They're right around the corner from me. they run a few tourneys every year and they have a "public" area that they post tourney info in.
