Going to Woman lake at the end of this month. <BR>I have fished it once before in the spring and had no luck! The mayflies had just hatched and we couldn't catch anything. can anyone give any ideas on how to find and catch walleyes. Any info would be great.

Joe,<BR>I have never fished Woman Lake but if the May flies are hatching try using night crawlers, or more specfic, part of a crawler, on small jigs or lindy rigs. It works very well on Vermilion during the hatch here.<BR>Good fishing.<BR>Cliff<BR><P>------------------<BR>Cliff's Guide Service<BR><A HREF="http://www.cliffsguideservice-lakevermilion.com" TARGET=_blank>CliffsGuideService-LakeVermilion.com</A><BR>Lake Vermilion<BR>Phone: (218) 753-2005

I just fished Woman on Memorial weekend and caught and released about 50 walleyes. Our best success came trolling crawlers and leeches on Lindy rig spinners (chartreuses seemed to be the most productive). The 'eyes' still seemed to be relating to shoreline structure. We did very well working the underwater points that come off of the east shoreline, east of Horseshoe Island. As a bonus, the slab crappies were beginning to move into the shallows in Otter Bay and the far east shoreline of Broadwater Bay (through the channel). The crappies were tight in the new weeds. While fishing for walleyes, we also picked up about a dozen beautiful smallmouth as a bonus.

      Made a quick trip before the weekend rush on Vermilion.  Ice was in very good condition.  Didn't see any slush or water on any of the roads out from McKinley Park.  There are plowed roads on both side of the staked snowmobile trail coming out from the landing.  The road to the left goes out toward Birch Island, and there is a spur road going to the left (west) a couple hundred yards out.  The road on the right side goes out toward Ely Island.  There is a short spur road going east about half mile out.   The water came up under my fish house about another 1½ inches when I drilled my holes.  Looks like I will be going back up early next week to block my house up higher.  The small amount of new snow is really drifting up and adding weight.  You may get water on the ice, or find slush if you drill holes in new areas.  There is about 15% bare ice where the wind has blown it off.  Many of the drifts are very high and hard, so you could get stuck on them.   Fishing was average.  Best bites were from 9-10am and 11-1230 when I quit.  Biggest walleyes was only 16¼", then the next biggest was 13.75".  Reporting lengths in quarter inches because I can't seem to find any big walleyes.   Good luck fishing, be careful driving around, and be courteous to others.
