Fishing Reports

Lake Gogebic’s walleye opener is quickly approaching Tue. May 15^th. Early ice out and above average temps have jump started the season with early spawn and more of  an early summer  than the traditional opener weather. Expect anglers to be using a variety of tactics and fishing in areas not common this early in the season. Expect crawlers and leeches to be a big part of the mix along with the jig and minnow. Fish may be spread out due to early spawning so keep on the move to locate your active fish. Even the females should be feeding more aggressively by now, so good luck and we wish you all a great opener! REMINDER! Lake Gogebics Chamber of Commerce Walleye tournament will be May 19^th and 20^th. Visit www.lakegogebicarea.com or call 1-888-464-3242. Also anglers do not forget to purchase your tagged fish buttons at local businesses to qualify for cash prizes up to 1000.00!!!! Good luck to all!
