Where are the fish biting?

Jon at Buck’s Hardware Hank files this report…

As far as walleyes go it’s kinda sluggish. Seems to be the ol’ evening and early morning bites. Leeches and crawlers keep on flying out of here but some of the dedicated minnow baiters are making a comeback. Perhaps some lakes are starting to cool a little. The bass are also on a roll so bring your bassin’ gear in the daytime in case it gets a little slow. Two Island Lake reported some walleye action in 10 to 16 feet and Elbow also had a few biting. Keep your eyes out for northerns here as some decent hammer-handle action was also reported. Lake Superior is still giving up salmon and lake trout around 120 feet. I’d experiment with the depths though.

Smallies are hitting on everything so have some fun, maybe an ultra-lite or fly rod.

And, the anxiously awaited results of the Fisherman’s Picnic Big Fish Contest are:
