All Humped Up

The walleye fishing has been great!!! It is easy this time of the year, just find a mid-lake hump and start fishing. The guides are using minnows and the tourists are using leeches and crawlers. It does not seem to matter, all are doing good.
Lots of "slot" pike being caught and two days ago I seen a picture of a 46-1/2 incher!
We do not have many musky fisherman in this week, but those that are here are seeing some huge fish.
Like most of the time, it is hard to make those big ones grab on. I was told of a 51 inch fish that was caught on a #5 Mepps. They are still eating the smaller baits.
The lakers are biting good too. One day they bite better jigging and the next you need to troll.
A couple of the smaller lakes in the area are producing some massive crappies. I seen a limit the other
day where the smallest one was 1.3 lbs. It was the nicest batch of crappies I have seen in a few years.
The weather has been very warm, but we are getting enough rain to keep the blueberries plump. Some of
the berry patches on the hill tops are almost ready to be harvested.
We will be one of two stores to start the "pilot" program of automated licensing starting in September. Keep an eye on our site for updates on that.
Chow For Now,
Phillip
