Still catching some salmon on flasher/fly and Brad’s mini black jack combos in the Flat Lake area and the face of the dam area with a trolling speed of 1.9-2.1 and catching more fish closer to the structure than out wandering in the basin.

Smallmouth bite has been good with jigs and plastics on main lake points with some rock at depths of 20-30 feet.

Walleye fishing is still good with crawlers and bottom bouncers and we are finding most of the fish between 20 and 25 feet and have picked up some bigger fish now trolling crankbaits in the same depths.

Vertical jigging for lakers has been steady using 3/4-1 ounce jig heads and 5” paddle tails, Finding most of the fish on flats at depths of 115-145 feet.
