WE’RE IN FULL SWING WITH WEATHER, FISHING, AND CUSTOMERS. THE HIGH GAS PRICES DO NOT APPEAR TO BE HAVING ANY AFFECT ON PEOPLE FISHING, FROM LOCALS, DOWNSTATE, OUT OF STATE, OUT OF COUNTRY, WE ARE SEEING A LOT OF TOURISTS, AND VERY HAPPY ABOUT THAT.

THERE SEEMS TO BE A BIT OF A RUN ON WALLEYE LATELY, AND THAT IS TRUE ON LONG AND GRAND LAKE. WE ARE HEARING OF A LOT OF DIFFERENT SIZES, WHICH IS GOOD FOR A FUTURE FISHERY. PIKE ARE STILL HITTING EVERYTHING THAT IS OUT THERE, AND THAT MEANS BAITS AS WELL AS FISH BEING CAUGHT. TENDS TO MAKE IT MORE EXCITING WHEN YOU ARE COMPETING WITH “JAWS”

STILL POPULAR FOR BAIT IS THE LORIE RIGS AND CRAWLER COMBO, FOR BASS, WALLEYE, AND PERCH. ALTHOUGH PERCH ARE NOT THE MAIN TARGET OF MOST FOLKS, THEY ARE DEFINATELY OUT THERE.AND STILL NUMBER ONE ARTIFICIAL BAIT HERE, IS THE HOT’N’TOT. GREENS AND ORANGES ARE THE TOP COLORS, AND THE FISH APPEAR TO BE IN ABOUT 15 FEET OF WATER, FOR WALLEYE AND PIKE. BASS ARE IN MORE SHALLOW WATERS.

WELL, THE NEXT THING I WOULD SAY IS THAT IF YOU WANT FISH, YOU HAVE TO FISH.COME ON IN, WE’LL SET YOU UP WITH THE GOOD STUFF. SUMMER IS CRANKING AWAY QUICKLY.

OPEN 7 TO 6 DAILY

MONDAY 12 TO 6

HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON
