Gun Lake

[Rooster Chaser]

Heading up to Gun Lake in a couple weeks. Just wondering if anyone has any tips for lures to use for walleyes. Also, is it worth bringing in live bait, or should we try gulp minnows/leeches?

Which Gun Lake?

Mudro Lake entry point.

Live bait is always a plus. Try the left shoreline just off of the portage from Fairy, and spend a lot of time in the narrows. Have had some great fishing there this time of year. Lindy rigs, lindy rigs, lindy rigs. I've never done well on Fairy, but friends of mine have caught some hawgs on that lake.

Thanks for the info.

What kind of bait do you bring in?

[Mudcutter]

Gun is one of my favorites. Nice campsites away from everyone and good fishing. The narrows is where I have had good fishing before. Eyes are decent size, but if you find the sunnies,, they are really nice!!!

We were on Gun last July and had good luck on the north shore of the "barrel". A few walleyes and a lot of bass...couldn't catch any sunnys.

Going back in on the 25th but not sure which route we're taking this year.

I like to bring crawlers, but leeches are okay, too. I wouldn't try to bring minnows on that trip - too heavy and difficult to keep alive, and the other bait would do as well or better.

Give Gull a try,we did better on eyes in Gull than in Gun.
