Spent about 12 hours on the river yesterday with the crew from Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World Television playing camera boat driver and fishng (of course!).
Kieth Kaviecz (sp?) and Tom Sokolowski (GM Detroit) were on camera fishing for walleyes in the Trenton Channel and by Fighting Island.
I need to thank Jon Bondy (aka DRP) for the fishing info prior and during the trip. I know they got enough footage for the show, partly to Jon letting us know where the action was. The crew headed for Sandusky/Port Clinton for trolling footage today.
I caught right around 30 walleye in my limited time fishing (when I wasnt doing the camera boat thing I was a jigging fool). 3/4oz jig/plastic combo, I was using all chartreuse, but orange brown combos were working as well, I wasnt using minnnows although plenty of people were, fish seemed to be in the 20-30 foot range with my best action in about 24 feet, water temps around 44 degrees. Biggest fish for me was around a 6.5lber, but I did see a few pushing 8. I know Jon's clients were happy because all you could see were teeth in their hooded faces. It was chilly....
Thanx again Jon, boat looked sharp. Lets get out and fish together sometime this summer.
