2026 LEWT – Bays Edge Jigging Open | April 11, 2026
Cold temperatures, bright sunshine, and a steady northeast wind set the stage for the Bays Edge Jigging Open on Saturday, April 11th. While the air had a bite to it, the conditions made for a great day on Lake Erie—despite a consistent NE chop that kept anglers on their toes.
A strong field of 43 teams launched in search of early-season walleye, and the results showed just how productive the western basin bite has become.
