Fishing Report May 22, 2021

​Walleye fishing continues to dominate the fishing scene at the Four Seasons on Lake Winnie.  Fishermen are finding good numbers of small walleyes on the west side of the lake.  Jigs and shiner minnows in 14-20' of water has been the ticket to catching a lot of fish.  Whereas in the past few years it has been a challenge to catch any fish under the slot, this year it is a challenge to catch fish that are large enough to keep.  It seems if you keep sorting through the smaller ones, you will eventually come up with a nice meal of fish.  Some are even reporting limits.  Most of the fish being kept are 13-16".  

Perch have been sort of elusive this past week.  Normally, the perch are mixed in with the walleyes.  The schools of perch seem to be avoiding the large small walleye schools.  The perch are catching are very nice size.

Northerns are mixed in with the walleyes.  Some nice northerns are being caught on jigs while fishing for walleyes.  The pike seem to be very healthy for this time of year.  One fisherman, while reeling in a small walleye, actually caught a 38".  The walleye was on a stinger hook and the northern got caught on the main hook of the jig.

The weather has been fantastic so far this season.  The fishing has been as well.  We have openings for the next few weeks.  Now is the time to come to Winnie to fish.  Give us a call and we can get you booked in for some great fishing.
