After school Friday a father and his two sons plan an early Saturday launch at Rocky River to fish for walleye and perch. Angela, eight, begs to join with mom. friends from the crew, Al Stater and Sam, join for the island trip. The crowd at the launch is large, highlighting a parking shortage versus growing use of the site.
A father guides his sons on a fishing outing that turns epic when Sammy reels in a four pound walleye after a tense fight. Tony, Angie, and mom will hear of the catch, while the day ends with a modest perch and talk of season legends.
A group of anglers from Fairview Park Olmsted Falls and Broadview Heights fished Edgewater north of Rocky River chasing steelhead and coho salmon. They used downriggers and planers and multiple lure types but went five hours without a bite, catching four walleye and a white bass instead. After the trip they shared a fish feast at Kitt’s house. The piece notes salmonids remain elusive and questions wildlife department policy.
