Update from Devils Lake



Devils Lake is really producing some awesome fishing right now! Seems like fish are being caught from the west end all the way to the east end. Depths can really vary but it seems like 8-15 feet is a very common depth.

What to use…

1. Slip-bobbers with a small jig or hook tipped with a leech have been deadly. Run your leech 6-12 inches off the bottom. There are days the bobbers are going constantly.
2. Bottom bouncer with a spinner. We are tipping our spinners with leeches or a third of a crawler. Seems like .8 to 1.2 mph is a good speed to be going. Remember to make small turns and vary your speed for best results. We like to use 2 oz. bottom bouncers with a 30 inch lead.
3. Pitching cranks and jigs in the shallows. This bite has slowed a bit; however, you will often find nicer fish this way and it’s a great way to cover water. Work that 2-8 feet of water and look for the pockets. Remember weeds are growing daily and that walleyes love to be near the weeds.

Remember to Head to Ed’s for all your bait, tackle, gas, propane, on and off sale needs! We are getting another 150 pounds of leeches in today! They won’t last long so hurry in!!

Good luck to all the anglers fishing the chamber tournament this weekend!!
