The walleye fishing was fairly reliable this week. When the wind blew it was really good. Most of the fish were caught on the deeper structures and main lake bars. Rigs with leeches was the favorite bait. Some spinners and crawlers are working at times. The jig and minnow bite for walleyes has subsided a bit. Mostly getting northerns and perch on the minnows now.
The perch are here today and gone tomorrow sort of deal. You locate them one day and catch a nice mess of them, and the next day you have to look all over again.
Northern fishing is starting to look like a normal summer pattern. Fish are starting to show up in the deeper weedlines and are being caught casting and trolling artificial baits. The jig and minnow bite for northerns is still a lot of fun! Any of the shoreline drops offer a good chance to get into this program.
The mayflies have started to show up on the northern structures. Sometimes, this can be an opportunity to catch active feeding walleyes. Usually, nightcrawlers work best when they are munching on mayfly larvae.
We have several openings for next week. We have a three night minimum so check our availability and give us a call. - Joe Thompson, Four Seasons Resort 218-665-2231
