walnut should be entertaining Saturday

With all the reports, "walleye everywhere", "5 man limits in 10 minutes", "time to fill the freezer" and my personal favorite "go get'um boys". The nut' should live up to its name tomarrow. Might have to go down and watch.
 

heard they closed it down wenesday morning. my brother said there are tons of fish but, so many boats the fish wont bite. The last place I'd be is walnut tomorrow. will be closed down by 8am. get there early. like 4am if you want a spot to park the trailer.

I have to agree with spoon on this one...
 
As far as reports going...I dont think a few of us posting on FishErie.com is the only reason walnut creek jams up...Word travels fast....dont give the reports page here so much credit.....

this coming from the same person that believes this statement: "tons of fish but, so many boats the fish wont bite."  ???LMFAO

on a smaller lake, no question about it. on the great lakes, not a problem. its hard not to catch fish right now.

Theres a quick fix when you think boat traffic has em shut down...

YOU GET AWAY FROM THE BOATS!!!...lol
Last week all those boats and the NETS WERE FLYING EVERYWHERE...those fish were TUNED UP!

Weekends draw the crowd...always have....always will.......

Guys fished this lake by the thousands before FishErie.com....not much has changed....dont give a measly 10 reports a week on fisherie credit for shutting down walnut creek....ridiculous...

spoonie...i wasnt sayin it does or doesnt...just said if you think that is the case...MOVE...lol
 
No i am a firm believer that walleye in this lake do not have a negative reaction to boat traffic....i think sunlight has more to do with it and usually when the boats are there in their mass numbers...the sun is also high in the sky...
 
However some days nothing seems to matter...hundreds of boats...hot and sunny and calm and the fish keep on coming....

They don't have any money so they say.

raab go out to the south pier and tie a rope on your leg and the other end to a block make everybody happy

Take me and you won,t have to get out of the boat.!

what is connie or ashtabula like on weekends>

sixers,
 
Not near as much entertainment, but you always seem to run into people with little or no experience.  I always try to give them a hand when I can though, because I realize I was in their shoes once.  As far as Walnut this Sunday....once again, all the boats flock to the loading docks, congesting that whole area, and the complimentary side docks were free and clear.  I simply tie up there, drop someone off and watch and wait until my trailer finally comes down the ramp and load.  Front row seat to some comical entertainment for sure.  The best was....the guy trying to launch his boat and the motor would not start....he pulled the boat out to the lot and tried to figure out the problem....turned out that the lanyard was pulled on the kill switch.....Yep, that was me!!!!  Darned those kids of mine!  It happens to us all. 
 
Anyway, Took my nephew out...once we got fishing, we had a great day!!

There are always some greenhorns its seems like at Conny.  Guys that drop the boat in, then tie off to the dock, get back in the truck and motor it around to park it, then take their time getting back to the boat, then firing it; instead of dropping, firing, and mooring at the wall like you are supposed to.  It can make it very congested and frustrating. 

There's always someone that doesn't understand that rollers + gravity = boat on concrete.

Forgot to add that SOMEONE tried to crank one more click on the winch, and broke the strap. Had to rely on a knot, and the safety chain till we got to Wallyworld. I would never have attempted it with a roller trailer.

Hey, I was just checking to see if the strap was still strong enough with that little fray in it.   Totally a safety check done on purpose. Now we'll know the next trip to lake O we'll have the boat locked down good and tight.
