by Gary Speicher, NPAA #128 •
Well, Walleye Wisdom “watchers”, it’s over for me as I weighed just one fish today but what a dandy–a 10.4 pound walleye caught live bait rigging!

A couple years ago at Lake Lac Seul, Matt and I found an area between two islands with lots of stickups. We threw number 5 and number 7 Shad Raps and caught some active fish on cranks in the timber. The wind was blowing from the southwest right down through the “chute” between the islands…

Just got off the phone with Alma and Scott Angove who own the Golden Eagle Resort on the Northwest corner of Ontario’s Lake Lac Seul. Scott’s report is as follows: ” Gary, the water is down this year because of lack of snow and the dry spring we’ve had–this should equate to really good fishing! We’re…
