Big Detroit Lake, Lake Sallie and Deadshot Lake. Bass and Pike were getting active this past weekend. Hitting on artificials. To be completely honest I was all rigged up for bass. We did OK with bass as it is a little early yet in the season. We knew it would be touch and go at best. But, the pike on the other hand were all over our stuff. We had broken rod's, destroyed baits, rigs getting messed up. Lol. It was a great time to say the least. All three lakes were shaping up to be in prime form for the season. Deadshot Lake in my opinion was the best and will be the best for the year. Specifically, in the South-Southwest area of the lake. There is a primo weed-line with a solid drop off from 4 foot of water to 10-15 foot. I would consider calling this #SlamCity

Smallmouth seem to have lockjaw... anyone figured them out and got on a good bite? Any tips for the Eastside ? Thanks in advance.. Tripp -
I've been out fishing recently and have been completely skunked from the bank and from a boat using ghost minnow colored squarebills, black jigs with green pumpkin trailers and white paddletails. What would you guys recommend I use from the bank and from a boat?

Hey all! I moved to Rogers, MN last summer and so I decided I should try out some smallmouth fishing from shore in the rivers around here! Problem is, I struggled to catch any last fall. Before I try again this spring, I am hoping to get some feedback on the spots I am trying. I know there are smallmouth in these fisheries, but maybe these are bad spots? Mississippi River: - Monticello: East and West Bridge Park - Anoka: Peninsula Point Park Rum River: - Anoka: Dam in downtown Orono Lake: - Under the Highway 10 bridge. These are my main lures I have tried: Chatterbaits, Crankbaits, jigs w/craw, swim-jigs, weightless senko, spinnerbaits Anyway, any feedback on those spots or if I should try a different approach would be appreciated. Happy fishing all! Weather is starting to get nice finally!

Just figured I’d see where everyone is planning on going Saturday.... I’m from faribault and kayak fish. I plan on hitting up a small quiet lake west of town. I haven’t been on the water yet but I’m guessing water temps are around 50 or just above. How about you??

Washington lake???
Djsnej123456 posted a topic in Annandale-Buffalo-Hutchinson Fishing Reports - Hunting - Events
I’m spending a few days with a friend at the end of June in Litchfield “ covid 19 pending, lol”. He’s a walleye guy and I’m a bass guy. Was looking at hitting up lake Washington for some Smallies/largemouth. I’m guessing it will be late post spawn early summer transition. Any help on locating some good fish? Smallies especially? I appreciate the help. -
With the crazy restrictions on Mille Lacs and the uncertain opener are any of you still planning to fish Mille Lacs? Will you hit other lakes or just going to stay home this summer and hope things get back to normal? The very dedicated Walleye guys are really going to need to adjust or hit other lakes. Businesses are going to get clobbered. Sad situation. Hopefully there is something left in 2021.

Spring Smallmouth Fishing!
lakesareaoutdoors posted a topic in Fishing Minnesota - (Spring, Summer & Fall)
Hey guys! Went just over the border to Lake Okoboji this past weekend in search of smallies! It was a blast. Water temps were 39-41 degrees. Had to work the crankbaits pretty slow. Caught a nice walleye on a ned rig as well! It was my first time on the lake. I'll be back for sure! Here's a video from my adventure: -
Has anyone ever fished Nina Moose? I’ve heard it has good fishing, the trip would be mostly walleye and smallmouth.

Went to go panfishing and found myself in a bass feeding frenzy in the weeds. It is crazy to see how slow these big bass inhale the bait in the winter. First fish probably pushed 5lbs. Too much fun on light gear!

Hi guys! It's been a while since I've posted, most likely last year! I run a fishing contest on Lake Gervais for a non-profit group called the Little Canada Recreation Association (www.lcraonline.org). The contest is this Saturday, starting at 10:30. It's a walk up contest. we drill all the holes...well, actually, the Roseville Boys Hockey team does! Line forms early and we let you go at 10:30am. We lots of food, booya by the Little Canada Fire Dept., beer and mixed drinks! Lots of great fishing prizes and we will also be selling raffle tickets for $5. You'll have a chance to win the grand prize, which is a 70" TV plus $1000 cash! See the flyers below! Forecast is for 37 degrees on Saturday! One more thing, Joe's Sporting Goods has some free bait on the ice, fatheads and grubs, if you want suckers or anything else, bring them with. No outside alcohol (my license doesn't allow), we'll have plenty at great prices. We will also inspect everything on it's way in. Hope to see you there!

He passed yesterday at the age of 87. Sad to hear. I looked at some articles but didn’t the cause. He was one person in the industry I would’ve enjoyed getting a chance to chat with for a while.

Are there any active fishing clubs
Dakota Loing posted a topic in Fishing Minnesota - (Spring, Summer & Fall)
Hey I was curious to see if there were any active fishing clubs near whitebear lake or forest lake -
Anyone know of lakes with decent shore fishing near Mankato? I've gone to North Shore on Madison Lake but can't find any shore on other lakes near by. Any suggestions?
-
Even though I didn't catch this one. It's too awesome not to share it. Great looking fish. Texas Rig - beavertail with 4/0 hook & 1/2oz. I think.

Big Birch Lake. End of May 2019. Texas Rig. Pit Boss with 5/16th bullet weight.
-
Mississippi River, pool 5a Texas Rig; Pit Boss with the heaviest weight I could find the second (pictured) Bass will probably be the biggest I catch all year. Just under 3 lbs. As much as I don't care for Pike. I had to show this hog my buddy pulled in this day. Northern Pike, weighing just over 10 lbs - look at that dragon head!
-
Texas Rig - Pitboss with 3/8th. I forget the color. In lillys. End of August 2019.

Shore Fishing - Detroit Lakes Area?
John Schulz posted a topic in Fishing Minnesota - (Spring, Summer & Fall)
Looking for some fun easy Shore fishing spots. New to fishing as an adult, only fished when I was 10-13 in scouts. From California having moved to Moorhead Oct 18, just got fishing license for my wife and I. Bought some poles and gear and just wondering if anyone can point me in the directions of some great spots to fish off shore, as we do not have a boat. Thank you. -
Fishing minnesota lake osakis get together
Borch posted a topic in Fishing Minnesota - (Spring, Summer & Fall)
A group of us are planning on getting together on Lake Osakis for the day on 8/18/18 for a day of fishing and a midday picnic at the Battle Point Park. We would enjoy connecting with some fellow anglers from the site to connect and have some fun. Osakis is a great lake for big gills, slab crappies, nice walleye, pike, smallmouth and largemouth bass. The best walleye bite has been during low light periods. Sunfish and crappie bite all day. We plan on taking a break around noon at the Battle Point Park for lunch. Right now tentatively looking to connect around 8-9 at the access. Otherwise look for a red and white Warrior and connect with me, "Borch" on the water I'd you'd like. I might even have a fishing report really fresh fishing report for you. -
