The Ohio Walleye Federation – Ashtabula OH

The Ohio Walleye Federation held its last event of the year out of ARU in Ashtabula OH on Sat August 22nd Sponsored by Vic’s Sports Center. When the anglers made it outside the break wall in Ashtabula they were met with an unusual site calm water on Lake Erie, and this would be the case for the entire day with waves remaining 1ft or less with bright sunny skies. As this was the last event of the year there was a lot at stake for a few of the anglers competing for the Ohio Walleye Cup.

Coming in a close 2nd place was the team of Jobes and Wilmot bringing in a 5 fish limit of 37.84lbs and rounding out the top 3 was the team of Davies and Kerr weighing in at 36.22lbs. Teams reported catching there fish using dipsys and worm harness in the morning and in the afternoon resorting to crankbaits and wire line.
