    Don’t forget jigs or rigs and minnows. Minnows seem to be overlooked a lot on Mille Lacs and can be very productive if presented correctly.

    12 degree drop in water temp from 73.2 to 61.4 might shut the fish down somewhat but it still is worth a try. From my experience when the water temps drop like this a very very slow presentation until the temps stabilize again.
