Fishing!

The fishing season is in high gear and the action seems to be picking up for all species!  We were over visiting Larry Smith in Wisconsin a couple of weeks ago and had a great time on Lake Winnebago and the Bay of Green Bay.  We caught a lot of fish and many different species (walleye’s, pike, perch, carp, drum, catfish, bass and I’m sure something else that I forgot about).  


We fished Winnebago on the 2nd of June and Green Bay on the 3rd.  I was impressed with both fisheries, but I would have to say that the walleye’s on Green Bay took the cake!  We were catching fish on the Mills exclusive Salmo Hornet’s, Berkley Flicker Shads and the Rapala Shad Raps, these baits are all exclusive colors only available at your local Mills Fleet Farm!  We also caught fish on numerous other presentations (jigs and Gulp Alive, Rippin Raps, Jigging Raps and hair jigs) while casting!  Larry knows his stuff and I would certainly recommend him if you are looking for a fun, fish-filled outing!  Look him up at Larry Smith Outdoors.  


Our guide service here in Minnesota (Walleyedan’s Guide Service) has been busy too and the fishing is starting to crank-up in the Brainerd Lakes Area and beyond.  This past weekend I fished the 31st annual Confidence Learning Center’s Fishing Classic on Gull Lake and we won it!  


It was my mother, father and myself and it was a trip that ranks near the top of my best ever fishing experiences!  Yes, it is up there right near the outing with Al Lindner two years ago on Mille Lacs!  We won the total bag for the walleye division and also had the lunker walleye of the day. 

If you would like to book a guided trip with one of our professional guides, look us up at www.walleyedan.com and we will do our best to put you on some hungry fish.  
The next scheduled filming mission is going to be in Wyoming and I will be looking to harvest my first antelope.  Stay tuned and we will keep you up to snuff!!  

Get out there and enjoy this awesome weather!!
