HOT!! That is the word this week in the B.L.A – Along with the heat comes the dog days of summer especially for Walleye fishing. We are now peaking with our water temps in our lakes, temps hovering between 75-80 degrees. However, fishing continues to be excellent for bass and pike. One of our boats landed over 100 in a six-hour trip. The Bass fishing has been pretty hot on most of our area lakes, north long and Hubert, and Gull Lake have been the best in the 12-20 feet weed lines. Plastics, crankbaits, spinner baits, pretty much anything you like to try is working! Northern Pike are turning on Jigs and Pike minnows in 18-28 feet on Gull and Whitefish. Walleyes can be caught but with the extremely warm water temps they have been tougher lately, but we are boxing a few nice eaters but its been mainly a morning bite – Night crawlers seem to be the best on a lindy rig or 1/4 oz jig tipped with half a Night Crawler, along with casting a slip bobber tipped with a leech in 20-32 feet of water on Pelican and White Fish. Sunfish are active on most area lakes in the deeper cabbage beds on Night Crawlers and a small jig or small leeches. Get out and enjoy the summer on the water!! Book a guide trip today (218)963-2547!
