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.

Four Seasons Lake Winnie Fishing Report: Aug 12, 2019

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
