Was very nice being able to bring our limit home. released some nice ones in the 26 range and also some smaller ones in the 12-13 range. best trip of the year so far for me, hope everyone had a good weekend. using slip bobbers. we were going to pull cranks but didnt need too.

Nice report, congrats on the good fishing.

Were you using leeches or minnows?

It's ok if you don't want to give that out.

Thanks

Ole

My sis went out fishing with some friends they were trolling with #5 shad raps just north of upper twin island in wahkon bay. in their boat they picked up 5 and in another boat using the same method they got 4. all within about 2 hrs in the same spot.

just thought i would let everyone know about that luck.

all we tried were leeches. Got a 1/2 lb from the gas station by trophies. (nicest leeches I ever saw) I wanted to eat them!

      So I am also moving to the Lino lakes area in just 3 weeks and fishing is the only thing I would like to do… fishing buddy’s or any good spots would be appreciated

      Yes, MN is very difficult to register anything that had a title or a original registration card. I've ran into the same issue with old snowmobiles, and motorcycles it suks. Hope he can get it done over in Wisconsin for you. Good Luck.

      Some had eggs but not all, found in 7-8 ft of water in the weeds

      Thanks.  Very similar to my tactics.  I usually haven't started using lead core until August and then we are fishing in 30 FOW.  I will give it a try in 20-25'.

      It's amazing how much the water level is dropping. It looks like we've been getting enough rain to keep the forest hydrated but not enough to fill the lake.

      Finally made it up to Vermilion this summer.  Between opening our place in Soudan and entertaining the wife and dog I only made it out on the lake 1½ hours Wednesday evening and 3½ hours Thursday morning.  In those 5 hours all I caught was a 10" perch.  I had 3 other light bites and that was it.  The wife caught two 8" eyes Wednesday and didn't get out Thursday morning with me.  Vermilion Fuel and Food didn't have rainbows, and their chubs were very small and pike suckers were too big (they did have a river-mix that looked good that I should have tried).  I did see a few mayflies on the surface so I will blame all of those factors on my lack of success, although my lack of fishing skills factored in also.  Many others fishing around us and I only saw one other fish being landed so maybe I wasn't the only one struggling to catch fish.   Water temp was 65°F in Stuntz Bay and the water level is running 13" lower than last year at this time as shown below.  Good luck fishing and enjoy the lake.  It was beautiful out there.
