Everybody has a fishing story but at Northland Loge on Leech Lake this week a guess while taking a nap who left his fishing line hanging over the boat caught a 3 pound northern thanks to mike the dock boy at Northland Lodge who saw the fishing pole being pulled out of the boat landed the fish and cleaned it up for the napping guess. You mite say the fish were jumping in the boat at Northland Lodge almost true as guiding out of Northland Lodge this week for a great couple from Indiana Bob and Barb who caught a Limit of walleyes and jumbo perch to take home plus three nights of a home cooked walleye perch delight fresh from Leech Lake.

 

The Big Lake was hot this week for catching of walleye from trophy size to eaten size right in the shadow of Spirit of the North Resort to Northland Lodge Resort where in my guess minds will make for allot of Leech Lake memories.

The Weather has been crazy but the fishing and even better the catching has been fantastic all week, even heard about two huge muskies caught while fishing for walleyes and if a certain guide was a better netter we would be talking about a ten pound northern who did not get netted and about a eight pound northern who broke free from a certain guides stinger.

 

Leech Lake is Hot, and now would be a good time to make reservations soon to get in on this great fishing. You can call the Walker chamber at 800-833-1118 or call Anderson's Northland Lodge at 800-247 1719 for a great fishing vacation.

The Walleye bite was fantastic in front of the Spirit of the North Resort harbor this week when the wind was blowing but good reports were still coming from the Hardwoods area or the Meadows and from the potage bay area. A minnow and a jig were still the best but a jig tipped with a leech was also a good presentation. I also ran into some folks who were doing great on night crawlers on a lindy rig.

I hope you can make a trip to Leech Lake and to Walker the City on the Bay that has it all and give the Coach a call on the marine radio channel 88 or contact the Walker chamber for fishing guides services you on the lake.
