Osakis 6-5

[JohnWester]

Walleye action continues to be good on Osakis.  Two mile bar producing lots of quality fish at sunset and thereafter.  Bobber fishing with leeches and shiners were the preferred methods for nicer fish.  Bass have really taken off this weekend, with many fish in the two pound range coming out of the outlet area.  Spinner baits, or bobber fishing with jumbo leeches are both being effective.  Northerns are everywhere on Osakis this year, with lots of fish around the pound and a half to three pound range.  The bigger the live bait the better, big suckers, creek cheebs, and big golden shiners all producing nice northerns along the deeper weed edges 10-16 feet. Panfish remain elusive on Osakis, as the water begins to warm some sunnies have started to move in, another week or so should see them in the shallows.
