Fishing remains red hot as we move into September.  Water temps are starting to drop and the fish are hungry!  20 feet of water out of Warroad has been very good.  Spinners with a crawler or a jig with a frozen shiner are both working. Walleye and Muskie action at The Angle has been tremendous. …

Walleye fishing has been a bit up and down as of late.  You can see them there but enticing them to eat takes some work.  Downsizing lure/bait can help with this.  Some fish are starting to move toward fall spots with the area around Stony Point producing good numbers as of late. As the days…

Walleye fishing has been a little bit of a challenge since our last report.  The mayfly hatch went full swing just after the 4th and we’ve had some up and down weather.  That said, the forecast for the rest of this week and the weekend has improved and, with that, we expect the fishing to…

Walleye fishing continues to be excellent across the entire lake and especially close to Warroad.  People are coming in regularly with fantastic reports right out of Warroad.  Whether you like to jig, pull spinners, or pull crankbaits it’s all working right now.  This won’t carry on all summer so now is the time to get out there…

Walleyes have been found while drifting with spinners tipped with a night crawler imitation. Look in the mud around reefs and in areas where the bottom composition transitions from soft mud to clay and sand. Keep an eye on your sonar, sometimes bottom composition changes with very little depth change. Some rock reefs have been…

South End: Right now the east side of the lake is having a better bite.  There are still some pike in the Warroad river.  As waters warm- look toward places like south tip and elm point starting to heat up on the West side.  We’ve been out of Warroad and are seeing tons of fish,…

It has been one of the latest, and fastest, thaws in quite sometime. Most of the NW Angle is open, but yesterday the wind pushed the ice back into Young’s Bay. Bobby’s Bay, by Oak island, still has ice and most places in the area will not be able to get to their docks yet….

On the south shore, anglers are still having their best luck out deep in 30+ feet of water. Getting away from crowds has been the ticket for good consistent action. Bright spoons tipped with a fathead, and a bobber rod, with a full minnow close by has been the way to go. Use electronics to…

On the west side of the lake, anglers are having their best luck out in 22-25’ of water, and also seeing good success in 5-10’ for pike.On the east side of the lake, seeing better numbers from 28-32’ of water, and better average size up shallower in 17-22’ of water, especially during morning and evening….

Fishing last week was a little up and down with the weather changes that we had going on.  That said, in the last couple of days we have had more consistent reports.  Stoney Point and 16 Mile are two places we have had success lately.  Anytime you can get away from the crowds of people…
