Walleye central

[onetimedave]

I have fished Eastern Ontario since 1965 and caught eyes in many lakes. Iif you think this site is WALLEYE CENTRAL, you are wrong. WALLEYE CENTRAL is HEBNER LAKE. In 45+ years of fishing Ontario I have never seen so many 16 to 20 inch eyes. Caught a eye with a 9" eye in it's mouth and caught two eyes on a crank bait at the same time. The inlet and exit rivers provided the most action but eyes were caught everywhere. Eyes caught using jigs with twister tails and crank baits. No live bait. Caught approx. 1300 fish with 90% being eyes. Pike did not turn on till last 2 days. Weather good with water temps in the 60's and dropping lake water. Lake dropped approx. 12" during 1 week trip. Scenery awesome. If anyone wants to make this trip, Hebner is a flyin out of Nakina.

Give it a few more chances and maybe it'll get better. Stay two weeks next time. That always works for me.

Nice! Exactly what I would hope to experience on a fly-in outpost trip.

Sorry I couldn't find the map for you Dave, certainly sounds like you didn't need it much and you had a great trip. Any big Pike in there this year ?
Hows is the camp, I'm told Remi has it fixed up really nice?
Where you off to next year?
Cheers

Dave,

Great report. Sounds like you have found your own little corner of Walleye Heaven. It is awesome to read reports from fisherman who have fallen in love with the gift that Mother Nature has provided us all.

Best Regards, Mike Kansas
