Not much changes at this point until water temperatures start to again cool down. That means walleyes are primarily being caught on main lake structure or along thick weedlines, mainly early and late each day. Just about anything goes at this point for presentations with leeches, crawlers, crankbaits, plastics, and hard baits such as Jiggin\u2019 Raps all producing a few walleyes. Muskie reports are OK, although there doesn\u2019t seem to be a lot of people fishing for them, even on the state\u2019s bigger, more-noted muskie waters. With water temperatures continuing to increase, many muskie anglers have pulled back so they don\u2019t cause added stress on these fish. The most consistent fish-catching opportunities this week are coming in the way of\u00a0panfish, bass, and pike. Weeds are the key right now, and in many areas, deep weeds are producing bigger fish.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Leech Lake Report<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Cover water with a spinner and crawler for walleyes on the deep weedlines or breaks throughout the main lake in 15 to 18 feet.

Jiggin\u2019 Raps or bigger minnows are turning some walleyes in Walker Bay over 20 to 30 feet. Look for bass and\u00a0panfish\u00a0in the cabbage or rice beds of most bays and the better muskie reports this week are coming off main lake rock more than weed.\u00a0<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Sponsored By:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reedssports.com\/\">Reed\u2019s Sporting Goods<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"tel:218-547-1505\">(218) 547-1505<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shriversbait.com\/\">Shriver\u2019s Bait Company<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"tel:218-547-2250\">(218) 547-2250<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Report from the Dock Many reports were very similar this week to last, which tends to happen this time of year.
