We put in at Edgewater Marina, East 55th, Lorain, occasionally up by the Islands. I assume you're trolling with spoons this time of year. I'm located near Cleveland and our bait stores are out of bait. Suppose to be 52 degrees tomorrow here. I think I feel a cold coming on, might have to call in sick to work. jim

The Sandusky river is so thick with walleye going up river to spawn in the Spring they will bump into you when fishing for them in waders. jim

Some fish spawn in the rivers but most spawn on the reefs of the western basin. Originally Posted by Ole Looks like the females are bellying up with eggs.
