This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Right behind the big sucker. Once is enough, they're tough as nails. I've pulled in multiple fish on one leach, even pike.

I put them on jigs. (white) sometimes i'll put a tail on aswell.

Have fun.

I made my annual trip home to Amherstburg the first week of July and found the walleye fishing the best its been in years - not for large fish, but for 16" - 20" perfect for the pan. My brothers and niece had no trouble in catching our limits within a couple of hours drifting the lower Detroit river using 2 oz bottom bouncers and spinner rigs with worms. My niece even managed to catch an 11 lb 14oz sturgeon - it took her a half an hour and a blistered thumb to land it, but she managed and will have life long memories of the event.
