Rainy Lake 2022!

Glad to hear it went well, thats a nice smallie!
Keep that spot in mind in future years if you’re in the area.
The rest of our week was spent having a really good bite on the rocks. Thursday afternoon in the heat we pounded the fish on one reef and ended up taking home a limit off of it of nice 15-17″ eyes.
Biggest for the week were a 23 and 22 so no real big fish but enough over 20 to make it fun.
Headed back up to Namakan for another week on the 24th. Just enough time to restock and freeze more ice blocks and cubes.

My folks and my brother’s family are up on the north arm this week. Sounds like they’re burning lots of gas…. not looking for fish, but dodging storms and squalls.

They’ve been there since Saturday. Probably only accumulated a day’s worth of quality fishing in that time. But when they do get to fish, it’s been good.

Weedlines adjacent to deep water are producing well pulling harnesses. They haven’t hit the rocks too much yet, but with nice weather on the horizon, I’m sure they’ll stretch their legs and venture out to the reefs.

Plenty of nice keepers in the 15″ to 17.5″ range along with some overs pushing 24″ along the weeds.

I’m sure they got soaked today (Tuesday) but the rest of the week looks pretty good.
