Friday on the Detroit River SKUNKED

[Tin Can]

Hit the river to day to introduce Handlining to Fish Eater.

Hit the High rise, Null,
Sturgeon Hole, Null
Cowpasture, Null
Sand Pile by the Church, Null
Bell Isle Bridge, Null
Rooster Tail, Jigging, Null
Pump House, Null

Clearity, Canada is dirty, Bell Isle Bridge not bad.

When we decided to give up, and head in, we met some guys that fished between Ren Cen and the Ambassidor Bridge, two boats, one boat had 12, the other 10. One of the guys was my nieghbors father in law so his 10 was accurate, the other seem guys seemed nice so I assume that they were tell the truth.

They both Jigged, and said the water was clean by the Ren Cen.

Another guy said he fished the same area and got one.


We did not notice anyone catching fish in the area's that we fished, it appeared that we were one of the few that were out fishing for Walleye, Cold, Cold day.

Thanks for coming out Fish Eater, it was fun,

Guys, He is a fast learner

With a name like fish eat you have to learn quick or theres no fish to eat. That was nice of you take him out for a little 101, maybe next time you's will get the bonus.

I'll be heading out tomorrow with an old friend on the river. Hopefully we bang a few fish if not at least I'll be with a long time friend enjoying the COLD winter weather in April.

Thanks a million for taking me out Eric. Even though I ended up wearin a stripe, and need a tomato bath, I still had an awesome time. That's fishin man, I'm chompin at the bit to get back out there for more abuse. Handlining was way cooler than I imagined. I want more.:evil: You deflowered me Eric! I feel so used.:lol: Dude, if I end up hooked on handlining now, you know my wife is going to hate you right?:) I've fished just about every day for the past 21 days, INCLUDING WORK! Believe me, she can't wait for Crappie season to end!:lol: Take care man, and thanks again. I hope to get out there again with ya one day, we'll get em next time! Stupid cold front.:( Later!

Well at least you can put another trip under your belt thats for sure. Fish Eater I hope you had fun learning the wire game, and thanks for the report. I guess I will leave my boat uh.... snowed in this weekend and maybe finish a project that I started a while back.....:yikes:


I always say never do today what you can put off until tommorow.....:lol:

Guys, just to show you what Kind of Guy Fish eater is, he went to Canada on Thurs. to get a Canadia license so that we could fish more than 1/2 the river. He did not what to handicap me into staying in American water

We never tangled not even once, he knows how to handline, so feel free to invite him.

Fished the River on Friday for a few hours. Picked up a limit jigging on the US side near Wyandotte. Two tone Fin-S Fish, no minnow. Key seemed to be barely moving the jig. 1-2 inch subtle jigging motion.
