Rose Lake Fishing Reports

[paceman]

I think your looking for Panman. I have never fished Rose, although I should. It sounds like a great lake...

Has anyone been there lately? How is the fishing and was anybody down the south arm?

Probably a bit early yet, should turn on soon with the nice weather coming.

Going to give this lake a try on Friday and Saturday just for the heck of it. I read some general pointers in earlier posts to fish the island, point on east, rocks south of access etc.

I never really saw a point on the east when I was looking at the map. Did that mean the bowl in the SE corner? Or is there actually a point on the east side of the lake? Also the island, never really saw one mid lake or anything, it appeared there was an island to the south almost where the arm starts (just east of it).

Can anyone else throw me some tips for the lake? Looking to get into some walleye and maybe some pannies in the afternoon.

Thanks!

Also where can I get some minnows early in the morning? Ill be staying on Rose Lake....

The arm is a good place to start. Haven't fished rose this year, but a lot of lakes are putting out walleyes.

Bait shops in the area are Big Jim's in Vergas or J&K Marine.

There is Bennies\Bernies Superbait as well, cant remember the exact name, if you are driving from Vergas it is between the J&K Marine and the access. My parents live on Rose so I have fished it it a little, biggest challenge is keeping the snot rockets off the end of your line, seems that if you were targeting 1-3 lb northerns this would be the lake for you.

Heading to Rose Lake later this week. I understand that it is not detailed on the Lake master chip. Not looking for any hotspots, will try to find them by research. I am hoping that it is not a cranking lake (hate cranking), but was wondering if it has nice cabbage beds...any info would be appreciated.

tks

There is a sunken island near the fork where it branches towards vergas, you can find some crappies on it at times. Otherwise otherwise on the NW weed line you can catch bass pike, and walleye, slip bobbers seem to work well. But its hard to keep the little snot rockets off your line.

Very interesting lake...did get a 29" eye, thought it was a big pike the way it fought, caught on riggin with a leech..32 ft..unfortunately could not save the fish..grandson caught a 10 lb northern..
