Another year comes to an end, a great year to say the least. Now we all have next season to look forward to besides all the other outdoor activities all of us do each fall. The area walleye league started back on may 25th and finished up on Aug. 31st. This year the league fished a wide variety of lakes starting with lake swenson on the first evening. Some of the other lakes that we fished throughout the league year were, long (by willmar), big kandi, norway, nest, florida, diamond, green and eagle. Some lakes turned out to be producers for most teams and others seem to produce for only a few teams. On the last night the top 5 teams started the night in a tight race for 1st place, but at the end of the night team Boike/Gary brought in enough fish to take the lead and end up this years winners. Results went like this:

1. Chad B./Scott G. 60pts

2. Jayson C./Karl W. 56pts

3. Dave C./Kurt D. 41pts

4. Scott B. and daughter 39pts

5. Gary K./Rick K. 35pts

6. Joe J./ Daryl J. 28pts

7. Daryl D./ Lee B. 11pts

I would like to personally thank everyone who participated in the 2006 area walleye league and would also like to put out a big thank you to J at J's bait for all he has done for this years league. Its never to early to start planning for the upcoming year, so that is just what I will be working on this fall and winter. Tentative starting date for the 2007 WCWL will be May 24th.

I would like to welcome any new teams who are interested in joining the walleye league. For information regarding league, send email to [email protected].

Would love to see some more teams join for the upcoming year. Once again a big thank you to all participants and look forward to another great year in 2007.

Any questions or comments, drop me some mail.

      Very low, probably 2 feet lower than last year at ice out.

      I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:   JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th Brianf. – March 28th Bobberwatcher – April…. MikeG3Boat – April 10th SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st   Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.

      Sturgeon Fishing is Hot

      By LakeofthewoodsMN · Posted

      On the south end...   Lots of ice on the main basin, but it is definitely deteriorating.  Some anglers have been fishing the open water at the mouth of the Rainy River in front of the Lighthouse Gap.  The rest of the basin is still iced over. Pike enthusiasts caught some big pike earlier last week tip up fishing in pre-spawn areas adjacent to traditional spawning areas.  8 - 14' of water using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring has been the ticket.  Ice fishing for all practical purposes is done for the year. The focus for the basin moving forward will be pike transitioning into back bays to spawn,  This is open water fishing and an opportunity available as the pike season is open year round on Lake of the Woods. The limit is 3 pike per day with one being able to be more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. With both the ice fishing and spring fishing on the Rainy River being so good, many are looking forward to the MN Fishing Opener on Saturday, May 11th.  It should be epic. On the Rainy River...  An absolutely incredible week of walleye and sturgeon fishing on the Rain Rainy River.     Walleye anglers, as a rule, caught good numbers of fish and lots of big fish.  This spring was one for the books.   To follow that up, the sturgeon season is currently underway and although every day can be different, many boats have caught 30 - 40 sturgeon in a day!  We have heard of fish measuring into the low 70 inch range.  Lots in the 60 - 70 inch range as well.   The sturgeon season continues through May 15th and resumes again July 1st.   Oct 1 - April 23, Catch and Release April 24 - May 7, Harvest Season May 8 - May 15, Catch and Release May 16 - June 30, Sturgeon Fishing Closed July 1 - Sep 30, Harvest Season If you fish during the sturgeon harvest season and you want to keep a sturgeon, you must purchase a sturgeon tag for $5 prior to fishing.    One sturgeon per calendar year (45 - 50" inclusive, or over 75"). Most sturgeon anglers are either a glob of crawlers or a combo of crawlers and frozen emerald shiners on a sturgeon rig, which is an 18" leader with a 4/0 circle hook combined with a no roll sinker.  Local bait shops have all of the gear and bait. Up at the NW Angle...  Open water is continuing to expand in areas with current.  The sight of open water simply is wetting the pallet of those eager for the MN Fishing Opener on May 11th.   A few locals were on the ice this week, targeting pike.  Some big slimers were iced along with some muskies as well.  If you like fishing for predators, LOW is healthy!

      Early bird gets the worm some say...   I have it on good authority that this very special angler caught no walleyes or muskies and that any panfish caught were released unharmed.
