October 11th Fishing Report

October 11, 2024

It finally feels like fall. Walleye fishing on the big pond is still producing well, as water temperatures drop and fish start to feed heavily. Many bites are happening across the lake, with most activity concentrated on typical fall shoreline structures. Remaining shallow weed patches and rocks in 6-9 feet of water have been the most productive. On calmer days, look for these fish to move out deeper into the 11-13 foot range.

Anglers are finding a decent walleye bite during early mornings and evenings, particularly around primary structures. Focus on breaklines in the 12-16 ft range and humps adjacent to deeper water.

The Hunt is ON at Lake Winnie

Fall is a prime time for hunting around Lake Winnie. Other than being on the lake fishing, being out in the woods hunting is the next best thing. We’ve got a diverse landscape, with a mix of forests, wetlands, and open fields, all offering abundant hunting opportunities. Whether you prefer the thrill of a bow hunt or the challenge of a shotgun, the Lake Winnie area has something for every hunter.

October 4th Fishing Report

The Lake Winnie region has been battered by wind for about a week now. Shoreline fish should be set up and ready to feed for the upcoming weekend; however, it doesn't look like we'll catch a break this weekend either. With strong winds on the horizon, anglers should remember that the south shore of Winnie often fishes better in a heavy south wind, which may be counterintuitive. In contrast, the north shore seems to perform better when the wind is pushing in.
