I know a friend prefished a week ago for the tournament last weekend at the head of the lake and not much was happening yet. But that can change as more fish move down. Thanks, Bill
I fished the head of the lake yesterday and did pretty good. We were starting are trolls at fredricks point and trolling lead core with # 5 and # 7 shad raps, are fish came in 10 to 12 ft on the bottom. The tournament started at 7 and we had 5 fish over 2 pds at 7:40 then the head died for us. But the fish are definately there!
We also pulled some solid fish in this general area on Sunday. Just down stream of the Prespyterian (Spelling)point. Seemed like as soon as the boat traffic both fishing and cruising to and from Pepin picked up the bite died. Both lead core and long lining shad raps were effective.
