The walleyes seem to be in a transitional mode this week.  There are more fish showing up on the shoreline breaks than the mid-lake structure. 
We are still catching some fish in the middle, but they seem to be more finicky than the past couple weeks.  All the methods are catching walleyes at different times of the day.  Trolling crankbaits and spinners, jigging minnows, leeches, and worms, and Lindy Rigging with the same baits are all working.  The key is to find active fish.
Northern Pike fishing has been quite good.  Look for the weeds on top of the main bars as well as the weeds along the shoreline drop-offs in 14-17' of water.  Trolling spoons and larger crankbaits seem to be the best tactics on these structures.  Jigs and small sucker minnows are also doing the job on top of the main bars for pike.
The perch front is showing signs of improving.  Some nicer perch were brought in this week.  Small crankbaits were the best way to catch the bigger perch.  Minnows are catching perch too, but most of them are small; the small ones don't seem to bite the crankbaits.  Fish the shoreline breaks 10-14 feet.
Fall is right around the corner.  We have our Labor Day special at the end of August.  Reserve the week of August 24-31 and stay until Labor Day for free!  This is a popular special with our guests.  You get nine days for the price of seven! We hope to see you then! — Joe Thompson, Four Seasons Resort 218-665-2231

Walleye fishing has been very productive this past week.  All the guests that pursued walleyes had success.  Northern pike fishing is going good too and I think the best method is the mixed bag approach, fishing the weeds on top of the main bars. 
Jigs and small sucker minnows are the preferred bait.  Some fish are starting to go on crankbaits as well. Fishing adjacent to the main shoreline drop-offs with the crankbaits is the best location.  Lindy Rigs with leeches and crawlers are working along the edges of the structure. Also, trolling with spoons and crankbaits in the weeds will catch fish. Focus on the best weeds you can find for targeting pike.
Perch are still the mystery of the year.  When you can't get a perch bite dragging a night crawler, you know something is going on with the perch.   Some fish are being caught, but the action is very much hit and misses right now. The folks that are having some success are fishing the shoreline weeds using fathead minnows.
We have some openings for the next few weeks. There is still time to get in a family fishing vacation before the kids go back to school.  Check out our availability and give us a call. — Joe Thompson, Four Seasons Resort 218-665-2231
