Fishing remains strong.
The walleye fishing has been very good the last few days. We have been finding the fish in 20 to 30 feet of water. For the most part jigs tipped with leeches or crawlers have been the most productive. We have also been finding some walleyes in the shallows with crankbaits and jigs with plastics.
The weather has been up and down so the shallow water bit has been on and off again. The deeper eyes have been very steady.
We have been finding the bass in 6 to 8 ft. of water. Pitching light jigs tipped with live bait.
The northern pike have been been coming on spinner baits over the weed beds, and on crankbaits on the rock reefs looking for walleyes.
The musky action remains very slow with water temps still remaining in the high 60's with a few places in the low 70's.
There is getting to be more and more algae bloom. It is not to the stage that hampers fishing but it seems to be on the increase.
