Devils Lake Fishing Reports

[Bassmaster-ND]

[indent][size 1]2/6/04[/size][/indent][size 1]After heavy snows and cold temps anglers were finally making it back on the lake this past week. With the help of the public trail system and the plowing of additional trails by numerous individuals, fisherman are once again being able to move around on the lake. When off the trails, snow cover is heavy and travel very limited. Anglers were reporting perch being caught in Black Tiger, Skadsen’s, Haybale, Camp Grafton, and near the Towers. Hali’s, raps, hanger rigs, and genz worms tipped with spikes, waxworms, minnow heads, or perch eyes have been the better presentations. Reports from walleye fisherman indicate a good bite this past week. Areas producing fish include the 57 bridge area, Rocky Point, Walfords, and Doc Hagens. Sonars, buckshot rattle spoons, chubby darters, nils, and raps tipped with minnow heads have all been working. Pike are being caught in Sweetwater/Morrison, the north end of Six Mile, and Walfords Bay. Smelt or herring fished with tip-ups is the most popular presentation. Good Luck and Good Fishing!!!
