Amercian Side report

[Capt.Blaine]

Has anyone been out fishing american side lately? I am heading up monday in search of the 30" Walleye. 2 29.5" still no 30inch walleyes. I hope I can get a 30" plus this trip. Any report will help thanks

I was out on the East side (US) Thursday through Saturday. We did real well on Thursday with leeches which is all I usually have to bring this time of year. The next two days however proved to be a stronger minnow bite and the leeches just wouldn't do it as well. We tried some cranks and did ok. Water temps in the mid/upper 60's. Fall patterns setting up already?

Most fish were in 32-42 feet. We worked for the shallower fish so as to not pull too many from the depths. Managed a few under 17" to keep and released a bunch bigger, especially the first day.

The reefs with the most boats were the slowest fishing. Fish seemed more sensitive to pressure than usual.

What a trip coming back home in that wind yesterday. 20-25 mph W/NW wind was really rolling the the whole length of the lake as we came out of brule narrows. That's when Rangers pay for themselves.

good luck.

Thanks for the report ccarlson, We are heading up in the morning. I know what you mean about the W NW wind same thing happend to us on the north end of brule narrows. But we were in a Pro-V. Looking foward to some good fishing.

Thanks again
