Fishing report from our guides: walleye are in shallow water, 8-15 feet, on sand and rock; pink or yellow jigs are working well. Northern pike are very shallow, in 6 feet weed beds; Mepps #5 and spinnerbaits are producing. Smallmouth bass are very active and being caught on rocky shoreline, casting a small crank bait up to the shoreline.

Friends Bob, Mary, Pete and Dorea had trouble catching walleyes small enough for shore lunch. Among their nice catches 28, 25, two 24 and a 23 inch walleyes. A good problem to have, right? Some of this weeks other fine catches are:
