Shiners continue to run up the Rainy River.

On the Rainy River... Shiners are running and walleye activity picked up greatly this week.  Good limits being caught.  Anglers reporting success jigging with a 3/8 or 1/2 ounce jig and frozen shiner.  Increased sturgeon activity continues with some 60"+ fish boated.  The bite is on! 

Up at the NW Angle... Fishing continues to be excellent.  Limits of walleyes being caught on rocky bays and adjacent reefs. 15 - 22'.  Jigging still producing.  Walleyes starting to move towards structure and outside mouths of bays.  Crappie activity strong, guides helpful for crappies.   A complete list of lodging, packages, guides and fishing info available at www.LakeoftheWoodsMN.com/Lodging
