I've been fishing the southwest side of the Chip since the 80's.
Yes, we used ti catch great gills & crappies!
But i do agree, there has been some over- harvesting & out-ridht poaching!
Now, we focus more on crappies & walleyes.
In the last 3 years, we have put back more crappies & walleyes!
But, a BIG PLUS, we are catching more legal walleyes. We have a very positive reaction.

Spent last week fishing the chip for musky periodically. Weird cold front for most of the week. Caught 2 but was only on the water for about 10 hours. Fish were doing something different everyday, but most success was on the deep edge of bars and points that had River channel access. Had four follows that came up from deep water underneath the boat, so do your figure eights and watch the graph. Good luck, I’m sure things will change with this warm weather pushing in.

Back from fishing the JULY 4TH week. BASS were the cooperative species. Best luck was early AM with "leeches" on weed edges. What was noteworthy on this trip was the PERCH. Adding to my usual bag of BG for a fish fry were some nice plump perch. Walleye eluded me this trip and I had a zero count. Tried deep water, but that always seems more difficult for me. Water temp was high and I think that is keeping fish deep. Northern Pike were ALL "hammer handles".

First time ever on the chip. Spent 3 days fishing the last weekend in June. Awesome getaway, beautiful scenery (Drone shots in video are sick), and lots of small fish. Couldn't get into the bigger walleye's, they were all around 14-15". The pike were hammer handles, snot rockets, etc... No musky for us (Weren't fishing for them). Lots of smallies, like insane amount of smallies on leeches.
Thanks to Jenk's Bait and Tackle for steering us in the right direction, big thanks to Shady Nook for letting us come to your resort and take some pictures and videos! Beautiful place to stay, amazing people to stay with.
