In Towne Marina Lake Waconia Opener Fishing Report and Temporary Hours - 5/14/23

 | By Seamus on 5/14/2023 5:51:00 PM | Views (17)
We will have temporarily shortened hours this week as we begin to bring boats back to the marina slips and buoys. Hours will be 2 pm to 7 pm Monday through Friday. Saturday 5/20 we open 8 am to 7 pm and Sunday 5/21 we open 9 am to 7 pm. We are NOT selling gas at this time. We will announce when that becomes available in the near future
.
We hope those of you who ventured out in the rain had some success this weekend. A good friend of the marina caught and released a 27-1/2 inch walleye! One of the marina employees caught a 16 incher and a 24-1/2 incher too! Staying shallower in less than 8 feet of water after dark has worked so far. Fathead minnows on jigs and shallow crankbaits (like a Rapala) brought in some of those fish. Classic opener locations like the Rock Dock, Peterson's Creek (aka the "Carp Trap"), the Clay Banks and Harm's point are all good areas for early season walleyes. We continue to see crappies being caught about 100 yards west of the marina. Nothing too shallow yet, but in the 6 to 10 foot range. Keepers typically are 9-1/2 to 10 inchers with some occasionally 12 to 14 inches mixed in.

Good Luck!
