Doesn't anyone fish Waverely anymore. This lake used to be a walleye meca, had a outstanding pike and bass population, and the panfishing was about average...Anyone

I was out there last evening, caught some walleyes and crappies in 30 feet of water. Watch the sonar and jig away and you'll catch some fish. We never had a bite under a bobber. All my fish came on pink & white A&E Jrs.

Good fishin'

fisherman, thank you for the update. Was there any size to the Walleyes? Were there many others on the water. I have not been there for a couple of years but used to really like fishing this lake.

The walleyes are running on the small side 12-14 inches. Was also out there last night and caught a few more. Might be heading out there in a little while to try again or head to another lake I'll keep you posted. I seen you on the independence forum, hows it been going out there. I fished out there on Sunday night without much luck.

Fisherman, are you over by the creek inlet from Little Waverly? I am Mr Pike's long time fishing buddy. We used to fish Wav every weekend a few years ago wih great success. Anything to get us back out there again would be helpful. Thanks.

Fisherman. Thanks. I never did make it over to the Wav. We ended up at the Shoe again chasing big Cats and Crappie. Maybe we can meet up there during the open water season sometime.

Absolutely, I usually fish independence a lot more on the soft water with much success in the summer. Last year CPR'd many hawgs out there in the short time I got to fish. Where you catchin those cats and crappies? Might be interested in that someday if time permits... Heading to L.O.W again tomorrow. When you going that way?

Heading up to LOW the 14-16th of March. Have a good trip. Would loveto fish Indy with you sometime. I usually stay away during the summer with all of the recreational traffic on it.

I would be interested in a Independance guided tour myself in the spring or fall. As Mykal has stated we used to fish Waverly hard and knew many great walleye locations and over the years released many hawgs back to this body of water. We have on occassion fished Indy with limited success on the open water.

Mr.Pike1 Mykal, Sounds fun to me looking forward to going out in a boat. I'm going out tonight and going to chase some slabs somewhere. Crappies just dont keep me interested like big walleyes. Have you guys been getting any crappies anywhere?

I enjoy the big Walleye action myself. I have been getting some good panfish action at a little lake by my house.

      Back when the DNR was seining our beach in July I asked, and apparently they were through oak narrows.   But long way to go to get to us.   I'll keep my eyes open and my mask and snorkel on.  Didn't see any sign off them this summer.

      Nice job Troy.   We are happy with our opening day for ducks.  2 man limit of mixed species by 10am.  LOTS of people where we were today but that was expected.  Other than getting beat to our spot, no issues that would keep up away.  Not even the rain.

      Thanks, I'm riding this now TW200 so not sure I can get on any of the ATV trails. Might have to sled by in the winter! 👍

      There are actually 3 tree carvings on the trail from Soudan to Ely.  I saw 2 of them but missed the 3rd.  I believe that trail is the Prospector Trail #4 or #6.  You have to start from the parking lot on the Murray Road 2 miles past Soudan since several property owners on the old railroad bed didn't allow off-road vehicles on their properties.  Another option is to travel from Tower to Embarrass then on to Ely, but that adds a couple hours to the trip.

      I've seen that caving on a few web pages. What trail is that on?  It would be cool to ride by. 👍

      The colors are getting good. Beautiful time of year. Maples are full red and birch and aspen are going too.  I’m not finding a formula for walleyes. Best luck when fishing saddles and shoreline drop offs 10’ down to 20’. I’m using old crawlers, too, because a) it’s hard to find minnows although Northwoods in Cook has them and b) it’s been too warm to keep them alive.  We do have a change in weather happening right now. Wind is coming up and the temperature is dropping. It’s going to be hard to fish Saturday through Monday but the change could be good after that.  Good luck, you’ll need some. They are out there and you’ll get dinner but you’ll have to work for them. RLG

      Thank you. Yes, weather does look sketchy but we'll make the best of it. Looking forward to the colors and just getting away.

      Some more heavily fished lakes are tough ALL season.  Lake Minnetonka and Mille Lacs come to mind.  The water is clear, there are tournaments all the time, and the fish are not easy to catch.   That is why I focus my efforts on lakes with less pressure.
