Well the 2011 Minnesota Fishing Opener is in the books and of coarse we were greeted with a cold and rainy day but that didn't dampen out spirits. I spent both days fishing on Leech Lake and we had a blast! On Saturday the fishing was good and we caught our limit of keeper fish and some mid 20 inchers to boot. On Sunday we had pretty tough conditions with high skies, high pressure and the fish noticed. We caught fish in almost ever spot but couldn't put together a good number so we bounced around from spot to spot. Can't complain too much as we had enough for a meal, a few slot fish and one 27.5 incher.
We caught all our fish on a VMC Dominator Jig and a shiner. The fish were scattered from 5 feet to 12 feet of water.
I expect with the stable weather fishing is going to improve. Stay tuned!
