SUGGESTED FISHING GEAR TO BRING

Walleyes

  • Light spinning rod & reel
  • 6-10 lb. test line
  • 3/8 & 1/2 oz Jigs – yellow, white, or green
  • Tip with leech or rubber Twister Tail with color of white, yellow, orange, or black.
  • Little Joe spinners with blade colors of hammered gold, white or chartreuse.
  • They also can be tipped in various colors. Basically these two types of lures are all you need to catch lots of walleyes. 

Northerns

  • A little heavier spinning outfit than one you’ve chosen for walleyes will work
  • 18 lb test line and leaders are recommended.
  • Any shiny spoon or plug 4-6″ in length such as Daredevils, Johnson spoons and Rapalas.A lot of large northerns are often caught while fishing for walleyes. 
Lake Trout
  • Same rod & reel for northern fishing is sufficient, depending upon time of season.
  • Later in the season, the deeper you’re fishing you use Johnson spoons, gold or silver, silver Rapalas – 6″-8″ in length.
  • A variety of sinker sizes is advisable to get down to the desired depth.
  • Of course a portable depth finder is very helpful in fishing all the species.
