5/20/14 - Reported by Long Lake Bait and Tackle
Here's the fishing report for Long Lake... Let the fishing begin!!! Crappies are crazy in Mud lake as well as the rest of Long Lake. They seem to be liking Crappie minnows as well as some plastics. The water temp in Mudd Lake early this morning was around 57 degrees with the rest of Long Lake reading around 52 degrees. It should be warming up some today now that the Sun has come out. Reports of some really nice Walleye in about 20' of water both jigging and trolling. Bass & Northern are also biting! Looks like were headed into a really nice Memorial Day weekend! We now have all sizes of leeches in the store from pan fish to jumbo. Have a Super Memorial Day Weekend!
