    We have had some great fall weather and some great area fishing to go with it. As I said in past weeks reports I'm doing mostly Musky trips right now and the bigger fish are starting to feed heavy. Clients are doing best in my boat on Suckers and Quick Set rigs but we are still getting a few fish casting. Jakes, Grandmas and larger rubber baits are...

    When I go outside to hook the boat to my vehicle I see a thin covering of frost etched over the hood and front windows. “I guess it is fall,” I say to myself. The week before, I finished the last bass fishing trips for the year and noticed the bass action starting to decline. It is an indication we are getting farther into fall and it i...

Not as hot as last week, but still nice fish in the nets.

    The time is now for those fishing for Musky! Water temps have dropped into the upper 40's to low 50's. Most small to mid sized lakes have turned quickly thanks to overnight temps into the upper 20's. Mid fall patterns are here. Musky: Very Good- Excellent Hard to believe the rating is so high but great musky action has turned on. Multi fish days, ...

    The lake appears to be starting to turnover.  The water temperature has been right around 57-59 degrees.  As the fall moves on, the bigger fish will put on their feedbags and the biggest fish of the year will be available for catching. Walleye fishing has been very good.  I’ve been averaging 10-12 fish per day.  I’m...

    The fall fishing patterns have started to materialize.  The smallmouth bass and the perch are starting to bite.  The water temperature has been in the upper 50’s and I don’t believe the lake has turned over yet, but it should occur in the next week or so. Smallmouth bass fishing has been good.  They have been both in the...
