Minocqua Area Fishing Report 11/10/2015
Unseasonably mild weather for the first third of November has kept plenty of fishing opportunities open, but few anglers out to enjoy it.
Musky: Good. While suckers on quick set rigs accounting for over half the action, gliders and jerk baits as well as slow moving rubber baits also producing.
Walleye: Good. Most over deep water humps and transition zones of 30-45’. Larger red tails, black chubs and suckers on rigs best. A few anglers finding fish suspended 4-6’ off bottom using jigging raps to score fish on less windy days.
Largemouth Bass: Good. After weeks of no reports, anglers casting and slow retrieving spinner baits (Colorado blades) catching nice Largemouth bass in good numbers over weeds in 6-10’.
Crappies: Fair – Good. On the nice warm days, with manageable wind, anglers scoring fish along drowned wood, cribs and in some cases rock piles.
Water temps above average for this time of year. Mostly 42-50 degrees. A cool down with rain scheduled for late mid – week (wed night – Thurs), but more highs in the low 50’s for the weekend.
