13.74 lb pike Stacey Jones
8.91 lb walleye
12.5 lb Rainbow Trout
 
Where the Fish are and How to Catch 'Em!

PIKE: The fishing has been great. Most of the fish have been in 8' to 12' of water. Slow presentation seems to be key. Jerkbaits or a stop-and-go retrieve with a minnow bait has been producing. Try Hoggs Bay and the Honey Harbour area.
Top Lure: White Husky Jerks, Bagley's minnow baits

WALLEYE: Lot of fish over the slot!!! Waubaushene has been great with the water temperature starting to climb, the fish are starting to move. Sturgeon Bay, Methodist Is., Snake Is., and Midland shoal have started to produce some fish as well.
Top Lure:Floating jighead and leech, worm harness, silver/blue rapala. (NOTE: We have LOTS of components in stock to make your own worm harnesses and Backwater custom worm harnesses in stock)

RAINBOW TROUT: The guys are still flatlining at Balm Beach and area for Rainbows. The fish seem to be in water between 18' and 40', a little shallower at dusk. Body baits are still the way to go. Ripplin Redfins are my pick for the best bait to troll with at the beach.
Top Lure: Ripplin Redfin, Rapala Husky Jerk
