As of October 25, 2024, the fishing scene at Lake of the Woods in Minnesota is nothing short of exceptional. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Water Conditions
The weather is crisp with water temperatures in the low to mid-50s, perfect for fall fishing. Sunrise is at around 7:45 AM, and sunset will be at about 5:45 PM. The cooler water has the fish active, especially in the shallower areas.
### Fish Activity
Walleye and sauger fishing remains excellent across the south shore of Lake of the Woods. Anglers are finding fish in depths ranging from 20 to 25 feet, with some areas producing fish as shallow as 18 feet and as deep as 31 feet.
### Types of Fish Caught
Yesterday saw a mixed bag of fish, with walleyes, saugers, jumbo perch, crappies, pike, smallmouth bass, and muskies all being caught. The walleye bite is particularly strong, with many anglers reporting good numbers of fish, including some trophy-sized ones.
### Best Lures and Bait
For walleyes and saugers, jigging with frozen or live emerald shiners is highly effective. Successful jig colors in the stained waters include gold, glow white, glow red, chartreuse, orange, and pink. Drifting or trolling crawler harnesses and trolling crankbaits are also producing good results.
### Hot Spots
- The Lighthouse Gap, where the Rainy River enters Lake of the Woods, is a hot spot, extending west to the Morris Point area, Zippel Bay, and Long Point.
- The Northwest Angle is another prime location, with fish using areas like points, neck down areas with some current, and transition areas from rock to mud.
### Additional Tips
Sturgeon fishing is still good, although the "keep" season ended on September 30th, and it is now catch-and-release until April 23rd. For those targeting other species, pike and muskies are active in weedy areas over rocks, and smallmouth bass are showing up strong around scattered rock areas.
With the fall bite in full swing, now is an excellent time to get out on Lake of the Woods and enjoy some of the best fishing of the year.
