Walleye were caught west of South Bass Island and also north of Crane Creek over the past week. Panfish and yellow perch are being caught on some of the harbors and bays in the western basin. Warm windy weather in the forecast (as of 2/15) could do significant damage to the ice. Check with local bait shops or ice guides before venturing out on Erie’s ice.
