Definitely feeling like the end of the open-water season is fast approaching, but this past weekend’s weather allowed many to take their boats out again. Those who went out had some decent success with perch
Those who went out were mainly fishing Lake Oahe and looking for that trophy walleye. And yes, some were successful.
A lot of focus has been on Oahe and when it will start producing trophy walleye again and it has.
The water temperatures have dropped dramatically and that has caused the fish to school up, allowing for more jigging opportunities across the area. Plenty of big walleyes are being caught using big baits, either live
On days when the wind wasn’t blowing, fish were biting and the perch were schooling as the water temps begin to fall.
Oahe should start producing some monster walleyes over the next couple of weeks and the perch will be schooling.
Walleye bite is hot in some areas of the northeast.
Despite the unsettled weather, a decent walleye bit occurred this past week, but mainly in the northern sections of the state.
The warmer weather warmed the water temperatures back up and that somewhat impacted the fishing success. With cooler weather ahead, the bite will be increasing.
