Fishing Report – 6/5/14
Sportsman’s Lodge
Dr. Suess must have been thinking about Lake of the Woods when he wrote, “One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish.” Because anglers have been reeling in and releasing that, and more, including; big fish, small fish, walleye, sauger, northern and even a few sturgeon this week.
The fish have been roaming the lake this week. Anglers and guides have reported productive fishing near Long Point and Zippel Bay, in 4-Mile Bay, near Morris Point and Lighthouse Gaps, in front of Pine Island and further north near Knight’s Island. Drop an anchor and jig in 6’ to 16’ of water with gold, pink or orange tackle tipped with frozen shiners.
