As of October 17, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin is quite active, despite the autumn chill setting in.
### Weather and Tidal Report
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 58 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 45 degrees. There is no significant tidal activity on Lake Winnebago, as it is a freshwater lake.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:14 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, giving anglers a good window to hit the water.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a decent amount of fish activity, particularly with walleyes and white bass. Walleyes are still active, especially in the Wolf River and transitioning back into the lake. White bass are also starting to show up in greater numbers.
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Anglers reported catching a fair number of walleyes, with some days yielding up to a dozen or more per boat. White bass catches are increasing, and there were also reports of catching drum and perch.
### Best Lures and Bait
For walleyes, dragging nightcrawlers on the bottom using Northland Fishing Tackle Thumper Jigs or a Carolina rig with a 1/16-ounce weight and a gold hook has been highly effective. Colors such as orange, gold, and green are working well. Hair jigs in purple, black, orange, and chartreuse are also producing results.
For white bass, pulling flies, especially in purple, but also white, green, and orange, has been the best method. Jigs paired with plastics and crankbaits are also effective.
### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots right now is the Wolf River, particularly from Fremont down into Lake Winnebago. Another good area is the east shoreline of Lake Winnebago, where trolling small crankbaits like Flicker Shad #5's and Salmo Hornets has been successful.
If you're looking to catch white bass, the areas where they are starting to show up in numbers are worth targeting, especially with fly presentations.
Overall, Lake Winnebago is offering some great fishing opportunities as we move into the fall season.
