Lac Seul Trip 2010

I was able to make the annual Lac Seul fishing trip this year after missing it last year with the birth of my daughter. The weather started out great the first part of the week but then got windy and rainy by the end of the week. We had good fishing again this year. Walleye action was consistent despite the changes in weather. Lots of nice walleyes this year with a good number of fish over 20″. Nothing over 27″ this year but a decent number of fish in the 25-26.5″ range. The pike fishing was decent at times but not as good for bigger fish then in years past. The weed growth was down in many areas this year which I think contributed to not as many big pike being shallow. We also got onto a bonus school of 15-18″ smallies one morning which was a nice surprise. Most walleyes were caught jigging but some came on spinners and cranks. Here are some pics.

Looks like a great trip!

Thanks for sharing and nice pics.

Fantastic fish, what part of the lake are you in. We usually fish up in Vaughn Bay but were unable to make it this year. Seeing those pictures reall makes me regret not being able to go. Thanks for sharing.

Nice fish

Looked like a heck of a trip, nice job on the pics, especially the dark clouds pike

Andy,

Great job with the photos!

We stayed at Lac Seul Lodge the 2nd week of Sept. Nice place, nice camp boats good folks. Fishing was pretty good. nice sized fish, but very windy so boat control was difficult. Caught the best fish when the wind was the worst. Go figure.
