Rainy Lake Report – 10/5 thru 10/8

Thanks for the reports. Curious, what did you see for water temps? Interested to see how much it changed in the past couple of weeks.

Water temps were 55 in the main lake, low 50s in the bays, the lake was steaming for a while on 2 of those mornings

Sounds like a great trip and Good report too! How do you usually fish up there this time of year (jigs, rigs, raps etc.)?

Everything was on jigs with a fathead or shiner. I did try a rippin rap and also jig and Moxi tails when the bite slowed down mid day, hoping for a reaction strike, but no luck (other than a couple northerns on the rippin rap)
