Lake Erie Charter Fishing Tip #05:
Troll With the Flow When the water has a chop, trolling with the waves imparts that necessary slight slack in the line. Also, keep a close eye on your inside planer board as you make a turn; it will give you that small amount of slack that allows for more solid strikes—and more walleyes in the boat.
Chief's Charters catches boat limits of walleye, steelhead and perch on Chankanaab.
My boat, the Chankanaab, is a Sportcraft 28' Sport Fisherman/Hardtop purchased new in 2000. Chankanaab is a dive site in Cozumel, Mexico meaning "Little Sea." Chankanaab is seasonally docked in the western basin from April to September and in the central basis in September and October.
The Chankanaab uses cutting-edge techology to ensure your safety and pleasure on your trip. Additonally, Chankanaab carries all required Coast Guard safety equipment.
