I know its early to be posting this but I will be taking a trip up to Gull Lake from July 2nd-11th. I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with some walleye spots? Hopefully I'll meet some FMer's up there. If you see a Red s10 with FM decals on the doors and windshield, that would be me.

Hi Matt we're always willing to help out an FMer. It may be a little early to pinpoint the exact spots the walleyes will be hanging out at, but we'll give you a few likely spots to try. During the mid-summer period I really like to fish the mid lake humps and bars. Anything with deeper water close by. Some of my favorite spots are Cinosam, Stone Boat House, and the Bow Tie. Another good option is Wilson and Steamboat bays. Down in the bays we always catch quite a few nice eyes that are tucked up in the cabbage weeds. Rigging redtails, pitching jigs and plastics, or trolling raps all produce some fish. You will probably catch a mixed bag of eyes, pike and bass. That week it'll probably be wise to fish early or late in the day to avoid all the boating activity. Let us know if we can help you out with anything. Our fishing guides are on Gull almost on a daily basis so we are usually in tune to the action taking place. Good luck and enjoy your trip.

this past couple of days the walleyes have been better-gull has been only ok but North Long and Pelican doing much better-and finding some in a good size range of 16 to 22 inches. Redtails and creek chubs have been the minnow of choice but jumbo leeches have been equal to the task. Weedlines from 15 to 18 feet have been the best on some of the lake humps and also finding some in the 30 to 40 foot area.

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      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!

      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.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      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!
