Hello from Oregon, OH. My name is Jason and I've been gleening information off of this site for about the last 9 months or so and decided I should join and introduce myself.

 

Grew up fishing lake Erie for walleye and perch. Joined the USAF, moved away from 92-02 and returned to the Toledo area where I was reintroduced to lake Erie...Still didn't do it for me.

 

Then one day, I threw a popper in a pond and it was on!  I was hooked on the bucket mouths!! That was last summer.

 

I've since amassed several rods and reels and loaded a tackle box with cranks, frogs, poppers, buzz baits, jigs, and a number of other lures.  To say the very least, I'm hooked.

 

At any rate, I look forward to picking  your brains and continuing to learn about this great sport from all of you.  

 

Tight lines to you all,

 

Jason W

Oregon, OH

Anywhere near the defiance, OH or maumee river?

@TnRiver46 I'm about an hour from Defiance and about 30 minutes from downtown Maumee where the walleye run is thick in the spring.
