Lida

[Guest]

Anyone ever fish lida? my grandparents used to have a place there, they sold it a few years ago, but I still get to go fishing up there every once in a while.
what about little lida for walleye? I have only fished it once or twice, and am wondering if anyone does any good there?
I will be up there a few times this year and I thought I might try it.

South lida can be good at times. I tend to spend most of my time on north lida. Its still a good lake. If your running around on south lida remember not to haul butt around the east side of the island! BIG lower unit eating rocks! Cool place to hang your hat on south lida, cross point resort, get the best of two lakes there. Later!! Paul

We fished Lake Lida this weekend and had our best opener ever. Between 2 boats, we caught over 120 walleyes in 2 days, but most were only around 12-13 inches so we threw back most except for a few for shore lunch. The biggest caught was 20 inches and we caught them on north lida in 19 ft. of water on shiners and lindy rigs.

We were there for a couple hours on sunday and caught a limit just messin around! It has been good this week. the catch and release effort is paying off. Way to keep it up! we were jigging with shiners or fatheads, didnt seem to make much of a difference. Paul

Hi Osprey,

Just wondering how you did this weekend on Lake Lida? Were the fish still biting and on what lake did you fish? (north or south)

tkoziol,
we went to north Lida.

we didn't do very well, we caught a ton of fish, just not the right kind. we caught about 50-60 pike and only 6 walleye, and I didn't catch any of the walleye, my uncle caught them all. none of the walleye where very big though, 12-15"

all but one of the walleye where caught on sunday. at about noon on sunday the weather turned bad so we had to get off the water earily. one of the pike was pretty big, about 8-9 pounds, so that was fun to catch, but I just wish I had caught some walleye.

I hope to go up there a few more times again this year, maby the walleye will be biting better then.
