yes mellow yellow walleye I need an amatuer for 3 tourny's 2 of which are on lake erie I supply boat tackle you supply weather gear your drinks etc we split the cost of gas and bait daily it usually amounts to about 30 a day you pay hotel etc... you must register the cost is about 500 more importantly how much walleye fishing do you do

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

Hello Miloman<br /><br /> Whats the deal on the tourny rules? I would take a guess and say no live bait. What kind of payout is expected? Is it a multible day event. I would think you fish mostly crank baits and maybe some worms with a flashy spoon rigged to em.I hear the walleye are plentiful on Erie. Never fished it yet although I live in Pa. all the way down in the southeast part. What kind of rig you floatin? I never even see a walleye tourny advertised around here. We do have quite a few bass tournys around here put on by the local B.A.S.S. clubs. In the lake I fish the most the walleye bite has been off as of the last few years.<br /><br />For what its worth ----Flathead

go to infisherman.com check walleye trail it will give all the info lake Erie is primarily trolling with cranks off planer boards downriggers gotta watch that lake though as if your not in the proper thermocline youll end up with rainbows all day and no $$$

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

only fished walleyes as described a couple times.<br />used dipsy divers. IMO trolling is trolling...<br />not much expertise required other than reeling them in. <br />you'll probably find someone with more<br />experience.<br />good luck,<br />M.Y.

I never turn down an invitation to fish Milo <br />we can meet up in buffalo this spring perhaps?<br />better yet, meet me in the thousand islands and<br />we can hunt us some monsters...<br />may even be a fast ferry from toronto to rochester<br />one of these days. I know there's some great small<br />mouth fishing on canadian side of lake erie. niagra river is always fun too.<br />4 now, gotta get the snowblower out again <br />regards,<br />M.Y.

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

what are you saying about lk. erie being bad?<br />you mean cold and a lousy chop? I know it gets<br />hairy out there sometimes.<br />good luck with the lakers and the new Honda <br />M.Y.

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

no I fished it a few times this year and the gogbies are causing havoc. You know how lake erie was lots of small moutn perch and drum now go for th day lucky if you catch a few perch maybe a bass and maybe a few sheephead

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

yeah, I know what you mean! fished smokes creek<br />for smallies and caught a dozen or so gobies.<br />(we had a thread discussing it) we did catch some<br />nice smallies in the +/- 3lbs range. lot less perch<br />than when I was a kid... try the river yet?<br />we used to do well drifting for perch... also,<br />try tollin for musky round strawberry island.<br />the back side is a good spot.<br />ny state DOT asks everyone to kill every gobi caught.

Re: need an amateur partner for walleye tournament

same here we are told to kill all the gobie the problem is and this comes from a diver I spoke to that the complet ebottom of lake Erie is a carpet of gobie. Anything that eats it will die hence the amount of drum floating on the surface and the lack of perch. I wonder how they are going to get rid of the gobie you know if you handle one careful the black dot on the dorsel fin in bochalism
