***Fishing Report***

Walleye - Walleye anglers have begun to find walleyes out on sunken islands, in 15-20 feet of water, this last week. Out here, spinner rigs tipped with crawlers, leeches or minnows has been very productive during the day. During evening hours anglers are finding walleyes sliding up on shallow flats, along shorelines. Here a slip bobber and a leech has been very effective in 4-7 feet of water. Hot colors continue to be gold, pink, blue and purple. 

Smallmouth Bass - Bass status ranges from spawn to post spawn right now. Bass spawning are easy picking for anglers. Tube baits fished right on beds has been the easiest way to catch spawning bass. Post spawn bass have been very active and hammering topwater baits, Ned rigs, spinnerbaits and wacky worms. Shallow bays with boulders, down trees and large shallow  points have been great locations to fish aggressive bass. 

Panfish - Crappies and sunnies also pre-spawning, spawning or post spawn. Spawning panfish are located back in shallow bays with hard, sandy bottoms. Small jigs tipped with angleworms or wax worms has been very effective. Crappies seem to be more post spawn and are starting to transition to sunken trees and weedlines. Twisters and beetle spins and crappie minnows under a bobber have been very effective.
