Hey krd, im in ohio working i brought my boat with me, ive watched a lot of your videos today. I plan on hitting erie this weekend 6 22 24. You got any tips or ideas that may help me? Or dangers to look out for? We dont smallmouth fish in south texas so konda out of my element just wanna have fun and catch some. 6:51

I'm anxious to figure out how smallmouth think so I can locate and catch anytime of the year. Tha KS for this intel!

Can you do a video about how you locate fish and structure on your graph?

Would you be interested in trading a fishing trip for a diver duck hunt on the lake?

Teaching on the water would great!

This is great stuff! Thank you! I've caught a few fish up there, but not consistently. I'm trying to get my wife and kids on dome fish.

Not sure if you've done it or not... can you possibly get a aqua view under water to see smallmouth and walleye in their territory

East Harbor Campground Boat ramp is closed to campers only again beginning this year. There is a sign posted on the Entry Shack that says "Boat Ramp for Registered Campers Only". I asked about it at the camp store and they say that the last remaining ramp available is beginning to fall apart similar to how the other ramp that has been closed for over a year now fell apart. They claim that commercial boat companies are using the ramp more and more and it is starting to fall apart. They do not have funds available to repair the boat ramps so they decided to close the last remaining usable ramp to campers only.

Great vid. Thanks for sharing. Just subscribed to the channel. Keep up the great work and tight lines.

Wish I didn’t live 3 hrs from there. Bad enough to drive 1.5 hrs to EriePA

Thanks for the info. I caught my biggest smallmouth in front of the castle in October a couple years ago. I appreciate you showing specific areas where you've had success and that's what I'm interested in. I started fishing Erie with my Dad in the mid to late 1980's and most of our spots were based on landmarks and visual triangulation.

Good video, thanks for the content.

What’s your setup for the spinning rod for jerk baits ? ML or M ? Thanks for doing these videos they help a ton ! 👍👍

Thanks for the report. We stayed at East Harbor the same days you were there and struggled. As far as launching at East Harbor, we always get there well before 3:00pm check in and start fishing. This year I noticed the board/ sign at entrance of park said “ boat ramp for registered guest only”. I went into camp store and ask and they said that was correct. They went ahead and gave me a tag for my vehicle since I was staying the night. Hope that helps

Great video best fishing in the world

if you ever see a midnight blue/purple aluminum ranger bass boat out there thats probably me. love the fishing reports you post

After watching your vids I drove from Alabama up here. Am up here now. Fished Kelly’s yesterday for 14 hrs and caught 1 walleye and about 20 sheepshead. Fished a drop shot, tube, keitech, CrankBait, dark sleeper. Targeted all of those areas you had mentioned, plus some. Any additional insight would help.

This was awesome. Thank you so much. I spend about 6 weeks in early spring on Erie fishing walleye. I want to start fishing smallies in April. What size tube jig are you using this time of year?

The inlaws live in Oak Harbor and I drag my bass boat up from down south to fish while we are there in July/August. IF the main lake is calm I hit the reefs by Davis-Besse and it has been good some years and not so much others. If it's way to rough for my bass boat I've tried the Portage River for largemouth because it fishes more like rivers down south. Any hints on Portage River spots worth hitting other than the really obvious bridges and deeper rock walls and culverts? I've caught some surprisingly decent bags doing the obvious stuff but I'd like to expand on that area as my back-up. The smallmouth can be amazing.... so can the damn wind and waves. My Phoenix is good in rough water, but not that good. Thanks for the very helpful videos and maybe I will hit you up when I'm up there fishing, trade some tips perhaps.

How about the Detroit River Largemouth? Thanks!

Great video! Thanks

Thanks for the back up plan

Just found your channel and you have added a subscriber!! Looking forward for more tips and updates since i live near Marietta and dont l ow where or how to fish for smallies and walleye there. Great info!!! Thank you!

Another great video, they cant kick us out the marinas though if we are on the water.

Good video and info! Thanks for the lesson!

Sorry any suggestions

Going to look around south bass

Thanks for the report. Keep em coming. Heading to Erie on the 24th - 29th out of turtle creek. Annual walleye trip but hope to get in some smallmouth fishing also.

Great report!

I can either go out of Cranberry or Vermilion to get to that spot

Hey KRD your videos are fantastic! With your recommendations I can’t wait to get up to Erie and try some of your tips out. Regarding suggestions for video topics, would you be able to film a video showing how you approach one of your know spots and what you look for on your graph to determine if you will fish the spot. It would also be great to see how you use live scope to target smallmouth.

I like how you said the vermillion area gets a lot less boat pressure. I think that is key especially if you’re scoping with live

Just found your page, this stuff is awesome! I have fished the western basin for my whole life and now I fish in college and have done very well on some of these spots. A really interesting video could be about the stuff right off of the mainland. Several spots off catawba keep nice smallies all year!

Thanks you for taking time to do this. Id like some walleye teaching(during fishing) please.

Youre tutorials are very good thank you. If you make anymore could you please make your pointer blue or something, the white is kinda hard to follow with my old eyes. Thank you again Sir.

Do you fish the harbors for largemouth? If so could you do a video on fish placement at different times of the year? Really love your videos, keep up the good content!

Great info in your videos. Interested in the North shore and Detroit River.

I really enjoy your videos. They are great. I wish you would use a black pointer and larger. I would love to see some of these videos about walleye fishing. It would be nice to see you actually fishing and showing the bait using where you’re fishing at and things like that.

Have you fished near Cleveland before?

This is an awesome series. Me and my buddy live near Lake Michigan and smallmouth fish the south end of the lake. But we go to Erie in the spring for the walleye jig bite. Would love to limit out on eyes and go out for smallies after. Launch out of turtle creek area and fish around the cans. Any and all info is much appreciated. Keep up the good work and helping anglers improve.

Sir. I just found your video and thanks so much. It’s bringing back good memories when I Fish Lake Erie in the late 60s to late 70s fishing the Islands . Have the Government fix the Algae Problems? I love fishing the Islands for Walleyes instead of Niagara reef.

Looking forward to spring, I want to try the mouth of the Detroit river.Have you had success in that area?Thank you for your information.

Very interesting, grow up fishing Lorain from shore and Smallmouth was great then. I have a boat now and seems like I cant buy a Smallmouth around Lorain anymore. Never ran around Vermillion but after this video I will give it a shot. Thanks!

Just found your video I love lake Erie small mouth fishing I've also given up on tournament.retired but still love small mouth don't get to go as often as I would like

I’d like to see a break down of the north shore

Great stuff man, I can verify I've had success at all these spots before as well. Do you fish it much in late winter or ice out? Just curious if you have deeper water/wintering hole locations

Thank you for your great info

Will you be doing a Presque isle video?

Love the info one of the best I have watched do you have any info on fall timing ??

Love your videos. Awesome of you to share some spots to try. You have a spot or 2 I could try by huron to lorain in the fall?
