The Central Basin The Central Basin of Lake Erie is one of Ohio�s best kept secrets. Walleyes, Steelhead, Smallmouth and Perch are abundant in its cool, clean waters off Lorain, Ohio. Walleye arrive in mid-May peak in July and stay until October. Steelhead are here two weeks either side of the July 4th along with the Walleyes. It doesn't get much better than that!	All fishing equipment is furnished! I try to keep fishing as simple as possible, using 16 trolling rods, Daiwa line counter reels, dipsy and jet divers and side planner boards. I will show you how to do it. Come and enjoy the best day of fishing you will ever have. Set your own lines. Bait your hooks. Play your fish. You will do it all, except run the boat - that's my job! Trolling is the most productive way to fish, but if you prefer, we can drift or use long lines, or bottom bouncers or cast, if the weather permits.
	Captain Bob Schmidt hoists a hefty 13-pound walleye aboard the Bo Kay.
Why Charter?   Are you comfortable with unpredictable and awesome Lake Erie? Do you own a boat big enough to really feel safe on Lake Erie? Are you prepared to counteract the effects of seasickness? Do you want to spend all that money on dockage, storage, insurance, gas, equipment, service and repairs? Do you know where the fish are biting and at what depth? Do you know what presentation to use and what lures are going to work best? Do you want to really enjoy fishing and have a good time with out all the trouble and mess? That's what a good Captain can do for you!
	Steelhead are here two weeks either side of the fourth of July..
Limit catches of walleyes are par for the course aboard Bo Kay Fishing Charters.
	Smallmouth fishing is great all season, near shore. Perch (Lake Erie Gold) are good early May to June, and then they even get better from August to November. Kids will love fishing for Smallmouth or Perch.
