It’s been a great week up here on Devils Lake. We have caught lots of fish and they are ranging in every size imaginable! The lake is healthy with small fish and a nice mix of bigger fish.

The combination of good spawning and good management of the system just keeps Devils Lake firing on all cylinders. The future is extremely bright.

I say this all the time about Devils Lake. It’s a lake that gives you the your choice of how you like to catch fish. Not a lot of systems across the globe give you this opportunity. Pick the way you like to catch them, and go for it. The will will respond!

This week we have caught fish using bottom bouncers and spinners, and we have also spent a decent amount of time jig fishing. You can catch fish trolling and casting cranks as well.

Weed edges, road beds, bumps and old shoreline is where the bulk of the fish being caught are. Depth doesn’t seem to matter.

I’ll be switching gears mid week back to Sakakawea so stay tuned for an updated report from the Big Lake!
