Over the past week, I have chatted with many fisherman as I am trying to find out where the big panfish are. The jumbo crappies are now hitting full force on the peninsula. You have to move around and find them but according to the fisherman I have talked to, the fish being caught this year are very large.
My friend Frank caught over 40 yesterday and said he only kept those 12 inches or larger. He also said he caught quite a few jumbo bluegills. The perch are beginning to show up along the piers but most are still on the small side.
The weather for opening day of trout season looks good. The steelhead are still in the streams in large numbers. This weekend there are plenty of fishing opportunities in the area.
Northern pike and largemouth bass are starting to hit in Presque Isle Bay also. It is time to put new line on and head out, the time to fish is now. May your lines be tight and your hooks be happy! Good luck opening day!
