Walleyes on Long Lake on leeches are working well. Bimbo Skunks on McKenzie have been proving themselves worthy of your time. Seems like everyone has had good bass fishing and most of the lakes have a 5 fish limit this year. Any kind of Frog seems to be best such as the Lunkerhead or Booyah. Getting down to the last of the leeches. Call ahead for musky suckers. Happy fishing!!

Most of my fishing this past week has been for Muskies. With surface temps still in the 70-75 degree range it's been too early for great fishing just yet. However, we've been able to boat a few fish in the 30 something inch range. Buck tails and top waters are the best baits going right now, late in the day has been the best time too. Good luck, Jim Stroede.
