Southeast Lower Peninsula
Lake Erie: Walleye continued to move deeper as water temperatures warmed. The bite slowed slightly this week compared to the previous couple of weeks. However, anglers found success east of Bolles Harbor in about 20 feet of water near the Michigan-Ohio line. Crawler harnesses remained the most effective presentation, trolled at 1.3 mph on bottom bouncers. No single harness color consistently outperformed others. Various colors of spoons were also successful. Yellow perch remained dispersed.
Sebewaing: Walleye anglers were doing well trolling in the slot in 14 to 16 feet of water and over the bar in 13 feet. Most anglers were trolling with nightcrawler harnesses, and some limit catches were taken.
