Lake Sakakawea Fishing Report-June 26th, 2022

Lake Sakakawea Fishing Report-June 26th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 26, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Sakakawea

Once again the wind seems to be giving us problems up here in North Dakota. It seems like you get at least one in 3 days where the winds are strong enough to keep you off the water. When you can get on the water and things are right the bite is on! One thing I have...

Mid Week Lake Sakakawea Fishing Report-June 22nd, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 22, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports, Lake Sakakawea

I guess it doesn't matter if I'm on Devils Lake or if I relocate to Lake Sakakawea. The wind will blow and has forced us to cancel two days out of 4. 😤 I will say this however, when you get to fish the fishing is pretty good! Jason Feldner and myself decided...

Devils Lake and Lake Sakakawea Fishing Report-June 19th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 19, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports, Lake Sakakawea

My report this Sunday is one of relocation and more wind. I was able to guide Friday on a Devils Lake before the hurricane and we did well. I'm now relocated to Lake Sakakawea so we will hAve about a month worth of reports from here. Before I talk about Lake Sakakawea...

Mid Week Fishing Report-June 15th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 15, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports, Lake Sakakawea

Things are on fire out here on Devils Lake! Normally by this time of year I'm excited to head over to Lake Sakakawea, but this year it's pretty even up! What's working on Devils Lake? Well…..everything! For myself and Percheyes.com guide crew right now, it's super...

Devils Lake Fishing Report-June 12th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 12, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports, Lake Sakakawea, Missouri River

Well things have really started to heat up here on Devils Lake! If you take a look at all the weights in the Spirit Lake Casino Tournament you'll see what I mean. Pretty impressive to say the least. So what's working? Maybe a better question or easier question would...

Mid Week Devils Lake Fishing Report-June 8th, 2022

Mid Week Devils Lake Fishing Report-June 8th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 9, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports

Devils lake is definitely in transition. Some of which is contributed to a late spring so the water temps are still low, some of the transition is a massive bug/food hatch and when you catch a fish, it's fat! So what's working? Well, whatever you want to use honestly....

Devils Lake Fishing Report-June 5th,2022

Devils Lake Fishing Report-June 5th,2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 5, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports

We finally have received a couple lighter wind days and we have also been able to get around the lake a little more. Both of which have definitely helped the fishing. The water hasn't warmed up a ton yet but it's getting better. 60-62 degrees and the water is mixed....

Mid Week Fishing Report (DL)-June 1st, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Jun 1, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports

Wind, windy, windier pretty much is summing up this first portion of the week. We did however finally got back on the water after being held off. I've made my way to Devils Lake. My excitement was running high like always. Unfortunately my excitement to get on the...

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 29th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 29, 2022 | Devils Lake, Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Lake Sakakawea, Missouri River

I honestly cannot believe this is my last spring river fishing report. It just feels like we all got cheated out of a nice long spring here. It is what it is so here we go. Let's reflect back a little. The river opened up here in mid March kinda like normal. Maybe a...

Mid Week Fishing Report- May 25th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 25, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

And just like that…overnight actually the water cleared up on the Missouri River and the fish decided to come around as well. Crank baits, specifically jointed flicker shads were working well during the dirty water from recent rains out in western ND. This bait was...

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 22nd, 2022

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 22nd, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 22, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

Things have definitely improved since my Mid Week Fishing Report on Wednesday. The water is settling back down, it's clearing up, and the fish are responding. I'm almost done on the river here near Bismarck for the spring. A few more trips and we will be headed to...

Mid Week Fishing Report-May 18th, 2022

Mid Week Fishing Report-May 18th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 18, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

Frustrating! Just when things were setting back up and the fishing was getting good. The Knife River to the north decided it needed to remind us why this system is nicknamed the Big Muddy, and muddy is what it is. Makes my job extremely difficult. Clients come to...

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 15th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 15, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

Boom goes the dynamite if you are looking for action. Early this spring I was questioning if we had a population of smaller fish. Well, I'm here to tell you we do! Unfortunately, I fear these are kinda old fish finding very little to eat and not growing much. The...

Mid Week Fishing Report-May 11th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 12, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

I'm going to use the term funky or weird to describe what's happening on the river right now near or around Bismarck. Certain areas are absolutely void of fish, while others have a lot of fish. Problem is if there are a lot of fish they are in current like I have...

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 8th, 2022

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 8th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 8, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

Hard to believe the Big Muddy has come and gone already this spring. Probably because we never really had a spring. Lots of major weather events that definitely got in the way. I feel good about how things played out. Even though I didn't fish the tournament, I was...

Mid Week Fishing Report-May 4th, 2022

Mid Week Fishing Report-May 4th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 4, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

So many things happening right now out on this river it's hard to know where to begin. The good news is the fish are starting to show themselves in the slightly cleaner water, abs for this guide it makes life a heck of a lot better! Spawn is definitely happening along...

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 1st, 2022

Missouri River Fishing Report-May 1st, 2022

by Mike Peluso | May 1, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Missouri River

The week of the Big Muddy. Always the pinnacle of the spring here on the Missouri River near Bismarck. It means a couple things to me. First off, I wasn't allowed to fish it for the first 10 years of its existence. Sure wish I could have fished back in those days. I...

Mid Week Fishing Report-April 27th, 2022

by Mike Peluso | Apr 27, 2022 | Fishing Reports, Lake Oahe, Lake Sakakawea, Missouri River

Can I say a bad word? If you are a TikTok fan, you know the clip I'm talking about. Well, that's how I feel about this weather right this moment. I'm honestly losing my mind. If it's not snow, it's rain. If it's not rain, it's wind. If it's not wind, it's cold. Or...
