Back from fishing Black Lake with a friend, Managed 5 keeper eye's from 19 to 23inches. Fished most of the day friday until the rains moved in but we stuck it out for 2 hrs. Used sonars in 15ft of water. Gold seemed to be the hot color. Got a nice 21 inch pig under the edwardsville bridge friday night at 1am on a black and silver husky jerk. I had 8 walleyes right in front of me a foot and a half off shore, But only 1 taker that night. Love the walleyes in black lake, BIG AND FAT. 18in limit and only had one at 17 that we had to throw back. Got there at 10:30 thursday night and left this morning at 7:45am. Not bad for a day of fishing. The hard part was finding them. And thats my report from BLACK LAKE.
Do you just jigs the sonars like jigs? I assume? I'm going to try them in the morning for the first time ever.. Any tips?I have been trying to read through the posts, but there is a ton to read through so i figured i would just ask
Nice, you using 1/4 or 1/2 oz. sonars? I've been doing Ok in that area drifting a bottom bouncer with a spinner and worm.
