I'm not familar with those lakes but you can sure find some nice walleys at Glen Elder...alot of people trolling for them when we were there Mon. -Wed....... surely someone on here can help you out....good luck.

This time of year, find the boats, you'll find the fish. Good luck. All 3 sound like they should be really good this year.

I'm sorry, but is that really ethical. You'll miss out on so much doing that. Myself, it's the hunt I enjoy with the "prize" being successful in locating some fish. FYOF Just try to get a pattern established, all 3 lakes are chocked full of "eyes".

I don't want to sound like I chase boats around all day because I don't. But, what other boats/people are doing helps in developing a pattern on a lake that you've never been on. It's no fun (for me) traveling to a new lake to fish several hours and spending all day (many times there's only 1 day) just trying to find fish. Then get to the boat ramp and every other boat on the lake is tearing them up. Sorry if that last post was mis-leading.

I wouldn' t let any of that bother me if i was you just have fun thats what its really all about right? With a mess of fish thrown in. After all gas is expensive

You might want to skip Kanapolis and head straight for Milford. Last weekend my buddy and I hooked into 8 keepers, two of those over 24". Here is a picture of the big daddy 28"-13.5lbs.

On a side note, I caught that Walleye while fishing for Crappie. After we caught that ugly monster, we switched to trolling with deep diving stick baits and ended up hooking into 5-7 more Walleyes. I hear when the cotton is falling, the Walleyes are usually off the spawn searching for food. So, we trolled the flats and had decent success.
