The Western Basin of Lake Erie is the shallow flat basin that comprises the western third of the lake. Even with average depths of less than 25 feet, this part of the lake contains world-famous walleye fishing grounds with numerous charter fishing boats operating out of the U.S. states of Michigan and Ohio and the Canadian province of Ontario.

Perhaps the best fishing boat of all time is the F.V Farmhand. Captain Wade Renier and first mate and back up captain Mike Randolph produce limits of giant fish year around. It is said that Wade owns over 3000 fishing lures. Mike holds the IGFA record for white perch at a whopping 2.1 pounds Trent Pryor went fishing once.
