Fishing Report August 29, 2020

​As predicted, the walleye fishing is really heating up.  The fish have moved shallow and are eager to bite.  This program should last the rest of the fall.  It hearkens back to the old days where we could catch walleyes in the shallow water.  The algae bloom has made the water clarity down to four feet.  Quite the contrast to the 12-14' of clarity just a few months ago.  Jigs and minnows, trolling crankbaits or spinners with live bait are all working great.  The walleyes are mainly on the small side, but with sorting, you can catch plenty of  fish over 14" for the pan.

Perch fishing has been o.k.  When you find them, you can get a nice batch of perch.

Northern fishing remains very good.  Trolling seems to be the best method for pike, but you can get some while fishing for walleyes or casting big baits.  Spoons and large stick baits are working great trolling for northerns.  Vary your depth and speed until you get the location for the day.

Our fall discount starts on Labor Day and we are going to have a great month of fishing.  If you want to get away, now would be an awesome time to do it.
