Any northshore fishing reports


Recommended Posts

Heading to Winni later this week end through the middle of next week and plan on fishing along the northshore. How has the fishing been in that are lately and where would you start out? I would think it is a jig/minnow bite fairly shallow. Also if/when the wind kicks up we will fish in Cutfoot any walleye or crappie success there? Thanks, will let you know how we do.

Fished the north shore on Sunday fishing was great lots of fish in there right now. Tue fished Cut Foot fishing was also good in there. The crappies have made it out to the 30 foot of water range and the bite was good yesterday.

Gregg I have been getting them in Cut Foot, if you want to send me a email I will give you some more details without posting it here. Otherwise I have been looking for the big schools and fishing them with 1/8 jigs and minnows getting a few in each school and moving on to the next. Staying over them with the wind has been the tough part.

Fished the 3rd river flowage area this last thurs thru sat.

We did find a few crappies but with water temps around 57 they seem to be moving out.

We did pound some nice perch just off of those reed beds.

Picked some walleyes on the far side of Mallard point in that 8-10 fow snap jiggin jigs and fatheads.

Worked the north end of cutfoot a bit and saw the crappies suspended ,but the bite was super slow.I'm sure that will pick up soon.

Fished Winnie Monday and Tuesday, 3 guys jig and a minnow, larger rainbows were the best. On Monday fished from 9 am until the wind blew us off at about 3, kept 16 (14"-16 3/4")threw back a few over the slot and also kept a few big northerns as well. Had a big fish meal that night and tuesday finished out our limit, slower action though. Most of our action was from Highbanks to the south and all in about 8 feet of water. We tried the northshore and cutfoot with little success. There were a number of boats that did well in cutfoot, but we just don't know where or how to fish it. All in all, along with the grouse hunting, it was the best fall trip we've had in years,

Fished Monday and Tuesday the best action we found was near Stoney Point 8'-10', good perch bite with some nice keeper eye's mixed in. If you find the spot bring lots of minnows. Minnow type really didn't seen to matter, Monday night we were down to crappie minnows and were still getting good action. Anyone know what all those boats were doing on the Cutfoot side of the Gap on Tuesday? It looked like they were fishing in some deep water...Maybe on some crappies? I watched for a while but didn't see much action.

      Boy this wind is something. I was going to go deer hunting for the early doe season but the wind is a little strong.

      My electronics often say that I am on land when I'm on the water. Trust is a two-way street!

      if you have a jig and a minnow, lots of fish on all depths. Trust your electronics

      What did you catch that furry one on, a special flying lure?

      Fishing is still pretty good.  Went with a friend and the dog yesterday for about 5 hours, managed 19 largemouth and 10 pike.  I normally don't take photos of pike but several of these fish were on the larger side and quite thick so they made the cut.  One of these days my fishing season is going to be over but for now the fish are still cooperating.

      On our fall trip, we saw many examples of downed trees on Pine Island. Small trees being cut with chain saw and piled. Any insight on project?

      On the South End...  Fall fishing on Lake of the Woods is excellent right now.  The colder water temps have the fish snapping.     Walleyes and saugers are being caught in a variety of locations across the south shore from 20 to 27 feet.  Water temps are in the low to mid 50's. Jigging with frozen, or live emerald shiners is catching a pile of fish.  Anchor up and jig over the side of the boat.  Typically, lots of small fish to sort through but you will get your keepers along with some larger walleyes. Jig colors to consider are gold, glow white, glow red, chartreuse, orange, and pink.  Gold combined with any one of these colors is often a good choice.   On the Rainy River... The river continues to get better and better with more walleyes moving in each week.  Good fish being caught in many sections of the river.  The morning and evening hours have had the best bite. Walleyes are actually being caught using three methods.  Jigging with frozen or live emerald shiners, pulling spinners and trolling crankbaits.  15 - 25 feet of water has been the norm. Sturgeon fishing continues to pick up as the water cools.  The "Catch and Release" sturgeon season is in place right now.  The river holds a myriad of species of fish.  Crappies, pike, smallmouth bass, suckers, bullheads and even an eelpout or two are being caught up and down the river.   Four Mile Bay is also holding some nice walleyes as they make their way in from the lake.  Various areas on the edge of the current and channel break are good spots to begin. Up at the NW Angle... Another great week of fall fishing up at the Angle.  Walleyes are keying in on various areas with structure.  Points, neck down areas with some current and transition areas from rock to mud are good right now. Walleyes are the most sought after but in the fall, lots of muskie and crappie anglers are around as well.  Good reports on a variety of species including jumbo perch and pike as the waters cool.      Put on some warm fall clothes, make sure your camera is ready and make some incredible fall fishing memories.  There is still time to get in that last fall trip.
