This was my first time fishing Green Bay. Made it out 5 times with various success. When the water was warmer they were on the Oconto Shoals and were hitting steady. As the water cooled, I got a tip from a former guide as we were pulling our boat out. He was launching, and asked how we did. I put out a big thumbs down. He asked what techniques we were using. We had tried spinner rigs, cranks, and jigs and we bombed for the morning. He makes his own snap jigging lure and I bought (6) of them. He asked us to re-launch the boat and follow them out. He would show us how to use his lures. He actually boarded our boat to give us some tips on how to use his lure. We ended up with (4) very nice walleyes and lost a number at the boat. It's a work in progress learning how to find and catch those eyes with techniques I have never used. Plan on Erie myself next year.
