The July bite is heating up!

by

Walleyes
Waters are beginning to clear up in the islands and fishing is improving as well. With the mayfly hatch, the windblown shorelines will be holding fish as well as the mud adjacent to rock reefs and structures. Jigging around these structures is still producing good fish. Pink, gold and chartreuse have all produced. Drifting spinners has been very good. Hammered gold and orange have been the go to colors. There has been no front runner in bait choice; crawlers and leeches both will produce.

Muskies
The muskie bite is heating up! A fast moving bucktail at shallow weed beds and rock points and structures is working well.  Cover water and contact as many fish as possible! Check out this whopper!

NW Angle/Oak Island and Lake of the Woods Fishing Report

NW Angle/Oak Island and Lake of the Woods Fishing Report

1/15/2014

Midseason Bite: The best depth this week has been in 26’ of water. More walleyes than saugers have been found with the average size between 16”-19”.  A few northern pike and perch have also been caught this week.  Jigging with a chubby darters and buck shots have been the best tackle.  Vexilars are a great idea to bring along or rent, we notice an increase in fishing success using them.

 

Trail Conditions: The lake and land trails continue to be groomed 1-2 times a week. Get out and enjoy the trails today!  For more information about specific trails click here.
