Our group of 4 fished the Sabaskong Bay area last Wed - Sunday. There was a moderate bloom but not as bad as last year at this time. Fishing was tough until Saturday night when the weather changed. We only landed 2 fish from Wed - Sat and worked extremely hard to even see fish. A storm came in on Saturday afternoon and it was like someone flipped a switch. Every spot we fished on Saturday night in the rain and then again on Sunday morning we moved or caught fish. It was an amazing change. Top water moved the most fish but we never really determined a good pattern. Fish seemed to be relating to rocky points or islands especially if the wind was hitting them. We even pulled a couple out of very shallow cane/frags areas. If I were going back I would try shallow rock/weed points with topwater and if that didn't work I would start casting crankbaits a little deeper off the same structure. | |||

Posts: 86 | Six of us were at Monument Bay Lodge from 9/2 to 9/6. It was our family's first trip to LOTW. We had gotten some advice on the popular spots from a forum member. It paid off. We boated several smallmouth, pike and muskie of 32", 34", 48"(my personal best) and 50"(my nephew Jared's PB) which was also our family's first 50. The water was pretty much flat from Sunday to Thursday and the Bloom was in full effect. From pea soup thick to floating Tourquoise Toxic. We were in 16' rental boats with 25hp so we were limited in how far we could go but we did find clearer water and got a milkrun established. It was a good time, fun to fish a wilderness lake.
