Lake Erie: Fishing in Lake Erie was moderately slow this past week. On hotter days, the yellow perch were not hitting as hard. Walleye were very elusive. Anglers catching yellow perch were using perch rigs baited with minnows in 20 feet of water or deeper but without any specific spots with many anglers needing to move around often to have a shot of finding a good school. Fishing was generally more successful in the morning before the peek heat of the day, or in the afternoon. Water clarity was murky. Smaller hooks were working marginally better for catching yellow perch.
