Saturday 9/17
And the walleye fishing is still hanging on in PA…
Capt. Ken and mate Shawn hosted Nick F. and his longtime buddies from Kittanning, PA. The crew ran west of the Point and ground out 15 walleye(1 released short fish). A few sheephead and perch were boated along with 543 silver bass(over exaggerating, of course).

The same program as most of the summer was run…clean and weighted 5-color LC’s with Reef Runners and weighted mono lines with RR’s got the majority of the walleye bites. 2 fish were caught 61′ down on ‘riggers with Yeck spoons and 2 fish fell for wire divers at 140′ back and Storm Thundersticks.
Once again, Chart. Wonderbread Bare Naked Reef Runners were the flavor of the day.
Sunday 9/18/11
Harry H. and his family from Binghamton, NY took a shot at some late season walleye fishing with Capt. Ken and mate Justin and were rewarded with 16 nice fish, largest going 31″, 10.75lbs!
(photo- Jacob, Shirley, Kate and Harry got some meat for the freezer!)
Same program as above. No ‘rigger fish. 2 diver fish, same as above.
Chart. Wonderbread Bare Naked, Blue/Chart. Bare Naked and Cranberry Crusher were the best colors.
Not as many “junk fish” caught. 4 silver bass, 2 sheephead and 8 perch.
(photo-Lampreys eat Reef Runners, too! Seriously.)
Average speed this weekend: 2.4mph
