Minocqua Area Fishing Report 9/10/24

It sure felt like fall earlier this week, seeing people break out jackets, football starting, bear hunting opening up and hearing geese fly overhead.  Unfortunately, for those hoping that we’re heading into the fall fishing patterns, that we are all so fond of, Mother Nature’s throwing a heatwave at us.  80’s are forecasted in the Northwoods for the next five days.
Yes, this fluctuation in temperature has made fishing a little frustrating for some species of late.  Although there have been some good reports from the Musky world.  Fish have been caught cruising shallow, weedier areas with reports of fish coming on Smity Flaptails and bucktails.
With the warm weather, look for Bass fishing to also be productive.  Target the Smallmouth over deeper gravel with drop-shot techniques, but also don’t forget to poke around those shallower, inside weeds.  Some of the bigger Smallies might be cruising around there looking for a swimbait or a top-water to grab.
For Largemouth, look for 8-12’ of water with weeds.  A variety of techniques will work, creature baits have been productive and top-water should be productive with the warm weather.
It's been a quiet week in terms of anglers on the lakes the past few days due to cooler temperatures and a lot of wind earlier in the week.  Hope to get more anglers out fishing in the coming days and also more reports.
Wisconsin bow dear season, fall turkey and grouse season all open this weekend, good luck to those going out.  We do carry a small amount of hunting supplies if you need, or forgot; cover scents, scents, ammo, broadheads, etc.

That’s about it for now, get out and enjoy the warm weather, it could be the last warm spell until June??
