Fish On - Minnewaska / Reno / Emily
Fish On Bait and Sport
Glenwood, MN
Lake Minnewaska

Wow...what a weekend!  I told you that my wife was out of town and I was going fishing...and I mean going fishing!  Looking at that full moon all week has just about killed me.  Here are the stats...

Friday - 17 walleyes with the biggest at 27".  It was a pig...my hand could just grip around the shoulders.  It took awhile to release her but once she got her stamina back, she ripped off with a heavy splash of water.  I was in 3.5 to 6 feet of water on the south side of Minnewaska pulling a F11 Vampire at around 2.2 to 2.5 mph.

Saturday - 11 walleyes in about 3 hours (1:30 am to 4:30 am).  Nothing huge but alot of fish in the boat and alot of hits as well.

Sunday - 7 walleyes from 11:30 pm to 1:30 am.  As soon as the overcast shut out the moon, it seemed the walleye bite stopped...so we headed in to get some sleep.

I should also mention that I probably caught over 30 smallies during all of this as well.  They were ferocious.  Biggest was only a 17 incher...I really thought I was going to get a 20 inch fish but it didn't happen.  I was also looking for the 30+ walleye too.  Maybe tonight?

Still a great day bite for walleyes on Priest Point, School Point and The Hole.  I picked up a few at 10 to 12 feet along Swenson Point and Halvorson Point.  But I was saving my energy for the night fishing.

Big sunnies all over...just get to 10 to 16 feet for the really big ones.  I usually get a limit of nice sunnies as I pull my Reef Runners during the day for walleyes.

Big Pike...picked up a couple more really big ones at 26" and 28".  Alot of smaller ones as well.

Bass all over!

Fish On!!

Kyle,
Fish On...and on...and on...and on...and on!

Re: Fish On - Minnewaska / Reno / Emily
Minnewaska has just been great since the opener.  There was only one weekend that I really could not find the fish and I think that was due to the high winds turning the lake up.

What is really odd...I am always the only one out there at night...where is everyone?  Sleeping?

Fisn on!
