Fishing Lake Winnie

Lake Winnibigoshish (Big Winnie) is world famous for its outdoor opportunities. Fishing is second to none on this year-round fishery. Walleye, Northern, Perch, and the state record Musky all inhabit these waters.

If wilderness in a modern setting is what you are looking for, Winnie delivers. The lake has very little inhabited shoreline which give one a feeling of yesteryear. Once you have experienced the lake you will want to rediscover it year after year.

​Just as I predicted, the fall fishing season has gotten off to a roaring start!  All species of fish are in the biting mood right now.  The nice thing about the bite is that your favorite method of fishing will probably catch fish.

The walleyes have moved shallow and they are catching them in 5-8' of water.  Anything with bait attached to it will catch them.  I have been using an 1/8 oz. jig but some are using spinners and doing just as well.

Northern fishing has been nothing short of fantastic.  Trolling spoons seems to be working the best, but we are catching pike on jigs and minnows as well as casting, too.  Keep in mind, whatever you prefer will work.

Perch fishing has been good.  It is hard to go out and get a limit of 10" plus fish, but if you are patient, you will get the nicer perch.  By the end of your stay, you should have a nice limit of perch.   Eight to ten feet of water with minnows has been the best perch depth.  It seems like when you catch a few nice ones, you will have to move a little to catch some more nice ones.  That may change as the water cools down even more.

The word is definitely out about the good bite on Lake Winnie.  Boat traffic is up from the past couple of years.  We still have openings for guests who want to take advantage of the fishing and our 20% fall discount.  Look forward to seeing you this fall.
