Hey Sportsfans –

It’s been a couple of busy weeks on Lake of the Woods… so let’s catch up. 

Capt. Joey Buckets continues on his westward adventure… pulling crawlers to fill up the cooler.

Fish in the RED TOP and you won’t have far to go… Capt. Brian is finding fish right away in the morning in 12-16’ on the south shore. As the day goes on, you might be better off to bump it out to 25-29’.

Talk to Capt. Mer, and he would tell you to plan extra time to clean fish, not only are you going to catch your limit of walleyes… but you could also end up with a bucket full of perch too. 

The wind has been working in our favor recently… you don’t hear that very often. With a moderate wind, stirring up the perfect “walleye chop”, the jig bite has been productive. Use the classic jig and a frozen shiner, or switch things up and use a half of a crawler, both have resulted with a walleye on the end of the line.

With the predicted temperatures cooling off and the shiners creeping into the river that can only mean one thing… a fiery river bite is about to emerge.

That’s all for this week… SET THE HOOK!
