Fishing opener May 13, 2017

Are the fish biting? What are they biting on? How deep? Where are the walleyes?

All questions we have heard today. All good questions to ask any bait shop. So what are the answers?

• Yes, the fish are biting! Walleyes and northerns and some bass today.
• Minnows were the bait of choice today...rainbow chubs and golden shiners di well.
• Start fishing at 10 feet deep or more. Fishing the current was the best area . Spawning is not complete yet.

Stay connected for more fishing reports.  Fish on!
