Walleye's are moving off the
flats and to edges of the breaks and close
to
shoreline break mid-lake structure. The long
extending points into main lake
areas are holding fish. Leech and crawlers
are in full play. Rigs with a
4-5ft leader fished in 13-18ft seem to turn
the trick. Jigs with small
suckers/leech or half a crawler are taking
fish. There are still some
walleyes in the cabbage weed and slip bobber
and leech are a great way to
extract these fish from their hiding spot.
Some Bass are still on beds, and some
have moved off to outside weed edges.
Northern Pike seem to be everywhere.
Pitching cranks and spinners will take both
Pike and Bass.
Best Muskie lakes are Pelican and DL. For
Bass check Long, Floyd, Cotton, and DL.
Walleyes are on and off on almost all area
lakes, but consistent action has
been on Island, Pelican, White Earth, Otter
Tail.
Otter Tail, Big Pine and
DL have tournaments on them this weekend so
check out some other waters like Toad,
Sallie, Cormorant that have all been good
producers in the past..
