Location: Waite Park, MN | Spent a couple days on Leech this week. I figured with water temps 71-75, I'd find the fish had moved to the rocks. It appears I was ahead of them, I struck out. | |

| I was there 4 days, Sunday-Wednesday. Saw 6 fish total,boated 2. One out in open water,one in weeds. Was very disappointed in the openwater fishing. Bait galore (often high in the column),hooks around and below but only 2 Muskie strikes in about 20 hours. Surprising number of pike bites ‘out there’. I fished 3 basins and same everywhere. Get home only to find out it was really ‘on’ in another basin. Figures. | |

| Fished what is left of the weeds in Portage Bay the last couple of outings. On the first outing there was a bucktail bite. Saw four and caught one on bucktails. Lost track of how many pike I caught. Yesterday, the fish showed a preference for any presentation with a pause. Caught one on a slammer twitch bait and lost a good one on a shallow invader. Pike were even more ridiculous so I switched to a tail rotator at dusk. Didn't see a thing. In retrospect, I should have switched to a walk-the-dog bait that included periodic pauses... | |
