FISHIN ROD,

A few guidelines . . .

Walleyes - 18 to 30 feet of water, fish leeches and redtails along weededges. Try Dutchman's Bluff, Cinosam Bar and Center Bar. Also, troll #5 Shad Raps at night-- Cinosam, north Squaw Flats, etc.

Pike - Wilson and Steamboat Bays, Upper Gull and Margaret Lakes. Cast spinnerbait/minnow or jig/minnow combos.

Bass - Wilson Bay on boat docks and in bulrushes. Also hit the upper Gull lakes-- Upper Gull, Nisswa, Roy. Buzzbaits and Spinnerbaits in the pads and bulrushes, fish tight to the bank or near the inside edge of the weeeds.

Have a fun one! And let us know how you fare, ok?

-a friend called Toad

REPORT OF OUR OUTING.LOT'S OF PROBLEMS WITH MECHANICAL THINGS,MAINLY TRUCKS AND BOAT MOTORS. TERRIBLE HEAT WAVE.CAUGHT TONS OF HUGE GILLS,SOME SMALL BASS,NO PIKE,ONLY TWO WALLEYE.I DID LOSE ONE MONSTER WALLEYE,ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR BREAKFAST. GULL LAKE IS O.K., BUT IT WAS NOT HOW I PICTURED MINNESOTA AT ALL.NEXT TIME I'LL MAKE SURE THE LAKE ISN'T A HUGE TOURIST ATTRACTION. THE WALLEYES WE DID CATCH WE CAUGHT ON LINDY RIGGED CRAWLERS ON A-FRAME BAR RIGHT AT THE WEEDLINE 12-14'. WE ONLY GOT HITS WHILE DRIFTING.THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR ADVICE. I'M SURE I'LL BE BACK AGAIN. JUST NOT TO GULL. THANKS AGAIN.

Fishin Rod, Sorry to hear about all of your mechanical problems. Gull lake and the surrounding area can be busy at times. It can be really bad in the peak of the tourist season. You have to remember that not only are the out of state folk around, but the locals are on vacation too. Have fished other area lakes and have not found this to be a problem. There are some fantastic lakes within a half hours drive of Gull where you will not encounter near the traffic. Also there are many other areas of Northern Minnesota where the fishing is fantastic and you can be a little more secluded.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Great news, thank Skunked  
    • jim curlee
      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.
    • PSU
      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?
    • Jetsky
      Thanks for the heads up. Cigar.
    • monstermoose78
      The price will blow your mind if they get some 
    • CigarGuy
      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
    • SkunkedAgain
      I hope to see it and believe it next week! Nice looking crappie
