Good walleye fishing continued west of South Bass Island over the past week, and also off of Ward’s Canal and Metzger’s Marsh. The main lake ice between Catawba and South Bass Island continues to be very dangerous. Most anglers have been flying to South Bass Island or taking air boats over. Panfish continue to be caught in some of the harbors. Check with local bait shops or guides before venturing out on Erie’s ice.
