Fishing Report August 8, 2020

​The walleye fishing continues to improve daily.  The small fish from this spring are mostly in the keepable size right now.  Trolling, rigging, bobber fishing, jigging raps, jig and live bait, it doesn't matter.  If you find a school of these fish, they will bite.  It requires some sorting, but you can get several 14" fish each time you go out.  Work the flats adjacent to deep water.  When the lake is calmer, work the top of the main bars.

Northern fishing is in full swing.  All methods of northern fishing is working right now.  Trolling seems to be the preferred method for numbers of fish, but I think casting may be producing larger average fish.

Perch are readily available.  The trick is to find the larger fish in the school.  Deeper water off the breaklines are producing nice perch.  

As I stated in previous reports, the walleye fishing has a very bright future, starting now.  If you like to catch walleyes, even smaller ones, Winnie is the place to be this fall.  Come and take advantage of our upcoming specials.  Starting August 22 stay the week and enjoy a 20% discount.  Look forward to seeing you on the water.
