7/11/16 Fishing Report from Flag Island Resort, NW Angle Lake
of the Woods
Minnesota
The Bug hatch is over and it is time to go south instead of
north. The depth to be fishing has been from 22-30 feet. Little Traverse has
been producing and the rock reefs are loading up good. The water temperature is
at 70 degrees. There have been numerous launches up north from the south shore
by Garden Island.

Muskies have been found in both the weeds and rock this
week, shallow rocks have seemed best. Flag Island Resort entered a boat in the
Wiley Point Musky Bowl and it went great. We finished 9th, nice job
Forrest and Jonathan.
The walleye bite still seems to be in the transitional
period due to continuous weather fronts which has slowed the progress. We have
found fish in 6-30 feet of water. The edges of reefs and the deep water in
front of the reefs have been producing but, no real pattern. We have seen some
very nice fish being caught, 29 was the biggest this week and anything from
24-28 has not been a rarity. Frozen emerald shiners on a 3/8 oz. yellow and
orange jig has seemed to be the hot choice. Crawlers and Leeches have also been
working well on spinners.
Until next week, good luck fishing!
