Smallmouth Are In

2008-06-03

The smallmouth have moved up shallow consistently this past week on rocks in pre-spawn fashion. Water temps are close to 60 degrees on the surface. Leeches and crank baits have been very successful. Several18,19 inch fish have been caught. I even managed to release a 20" smallie on a perch crank bait. It was huge.

Walleye action has been outstanding in low light conditions. When the  sun is high its better to fish smallmouth or northern. We're in for some cloudy weather over the next few days, so midday walleye may be much better. Many nice fish have been released this week. Right off the bat Virgil Harren caught a 25" walleye on a bobber and a leech. My son Eric caught a 23.5" on a crank bait along with a 21.

One big 37" northern was caught by Jerry Slaughter. A 46" muskie was released by Frank Graczyk fishing for bass.

If a trip north is in your plans, give us a call at 800-249-3178.

May your pole always be bent! Dave
