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.

Opening Day, 2020

​Opening Day of Minnesota fishing finally came and went.  One thing I noticed is that the fish didn't know about or care about Covid 19!  👍 👍   Everyone who wet a line caught some fish.  The best reports for keeping fish were on the perch front.  Lots of nice 10-12" perch were caught along the primary breaklines.  15-20' seemed to be the best depths.  Jigs and minnows worked very slow were the best presentation.  

Walleyes were caught in good numbers, but the keepers were far between.  Jigs and minnows were also the best bet here, but you needed to be working the bait to get them to bite.  The fish were both shallow and deep.  The west side points were the main areas where the fish were found.

Some northerns were caught among the walleyes.  Most of these fish were in the protected slot, or the anglers chose not to keep them.  

The weather was cold but we dodged the snow that other areas enjoyed.  The wind was down which helped to make it bearable.  We have had some cancellations due to the virus.  If you are interested in fishing Lake Winnie in the spring, give us a call.  We are taking every precaution to not allow the spread of the disease at The Four Seasons.  Look forward to seeing you.
