Hey Sportsfans!
A quick fishing update from Lake of the Woods…
Despite daily weather changes, the June Jig-A-Thon continued to produce fish this week. In full transparency, the bite did slow down as the week went on… most likely caused (again) by the variable weather we have experienced.
Nothing out of the norm for mid to late June, the classic 3/8oz jig, tipped with a frozen shiner was the best method to fill the cooler. (The guides have not yet committed to pulling spinners.) The charter boats have continued to spread out… mostly fishing the mud (30-33′).
Pack accordingly… with the black flies out, pants are recommended.
If you are headed this way… Garden Island is set up and accessible for the highly coveted SHORE LUNCHES!
Forecasted for the next couple of weeks:
– With temperatures rising next week, we could see a big bug hatch.
– Spinner season is just around the corner. Who is ready to drift in Little Traverse Bay?
– Don’t miss out!!! The 4th of July celebration is something special at Ballard’s Resort + our local community offers many family friendly activities.
Now’s the time, make your way to Lake of the Woods. SET THE HOOK!
