Location: Iowa | I've heard you should try to fish the sides of the lakes that the wind blew against the day before. Who has had success doing this? Just wondering about the game plan for tomorrow. Didn't have much luck today, but the wind has been out of the south all day, fairly strong, without much for wind the last few days. So is it going to be worth my time to concentrate on the north banks in the morning? Thanks. |

Location: Indianapolis, IN | I would certainly start on the north shore! Concentrating on any points, weeds, and or rocks I could find! |

Location: Mosinee WI 54455 | If the wind remains throughout the night then definetly go with the windy shore those fish are probably going to be more active, but don't rule out the rest of the lake. All of the fish don't migrate to the windy side of the lake. I have had good success on the opposite side of the lake during high wind due to the type of feed and the lakes structure. If the windy side of the lake has rocks go with jerkbaits or crankbaits and pound them right off of the rocks.

Location: MN | Lone Stone - I started to fish the wind blown side this am. But I just could not stop thinking about my spot! I went to it, no wind, managed a 42". My finder was picking up tons of baitfish so I knew there had to be one around!
Go with your instints and it should prevail! |

Location: Iowa | I tried the wind blown side first. TONS of baitfish there, but all I managed was a strike on a DDD. Tried everything else all over the lake, except a jig. Hmmm? Just couldn't get them to go. That's the way muskies are though. Just a little taste of reality! |
