From our friends at Spring Bay resort:
Over the past few weeks all species have turned on. Many of our guests did well into the night with lighted slip bobbers tipped with a leech on rock humps (4-12ft). Daytime walleyes were a little tougher, but leeches and minnows were 50/50. Walleyes during the day were still in shallower water, but the occasional deep fish were caught, but the majority were in 8-14ft of water. Lindy and leech or jig/minnow. The crappies are still hanging around but not in mass quantities, just a few here and there tight to the weeds. Tons of panfish, bass, northern, and perch, and a few muskies. Northerns were excellent the past week for a few guys using swimbaits, congrats to Blaine and Nick from Colorado. Here are some other highlights and noteables:

Jerome Morris- Lakeville, MN......................40" & 42" muskie
Steve Farmer- Louisville, KY........................44" muskie
Josh Farmer- Louisville, KY.........................19" smallmouth
Steve Rogers- Austiin, MN.............................28.5" & 23" walleye
Jeff Kelly- Bloomington, MN..........................27", 24", 23" walleye
Jeff peterson- Mounds View, MN..................24" & 23" walleye
Paula Couch- Deerfield, IL............................24" walleye
Joe Witty- Dewey, AZ.......................................21" walleye, 25" northern, 18"smallmouth

Mayflies are starting to show themselves a little early this year, but has not affected fishing, the past week had alot of changing weather patterns. Weather for the upcoming week looks consistent and should spark some good all-around fishing. Stay tuned and we'll have more info in the near future.

Weekly Fishing Report - (July 21st)

The fish seem to have turned on, weather has been great throughout July, and water temps are staying in the Low-Mid 70's. The panfish, perch and bass are great right now. Rock humps and weedlines are top producers. Northerns have been great up in Norweign Bay and Treasure Island area. Swimbaits, small Mepps, and husky jerks have been top picks. Walleyes have been up and down, but everyone is catching a few, a few top picks for spots have been the Twin Islands 13-18ft, Hibbing Point 16-21 ft, Turtle Island 18-23ft, and East Side of Taylors Island in about 18ft. Lindy Rigs, black jigs, and slip bobbers.The crawler bite is slow on the west end, while the leech is still doing all the work. Muskies are definitely in full swing while both rocks and weeds are producing fish. The late nite bite has been best over the past week with almost all the fish coming after dark. Double 8's during the day, and double 10's after dark. A few crankbait fish and topwater action but 99% has been on blades!! Stay tuned!!
