It was a rough weekend for anglers. Between wind and rain most anglers struggled. Some did report success when braving the elements. For this up and coming week its hard to say what this cold snap will do to fish. Possibly could make them have lock jaw and hunker down. If this happens, fishing a little more methodical and covering water slowly could be the key. Drop shot, tube dragging and slow swimbaits are always a good choice. Walleye anglers are still having good success when fishing at night when the lake allows it. Reports at night are between 8-12FOW pulling shallow stick baits. Good luck to every one going out this weekend and watch the weather. TIGHT LINES!

A few anglers are picking them up though. This can only get better the deeper we get into the season. Good luck to every one going out this weekend and be safe. TIGHT LINES !
