Hot W/E action on Balsam Lake!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Hot W/E action on Balsam Lake!

Post by Slayingm »

I had 2 guide trips on Balsam lake this weekend and like the weather the action was hot! In fact on Sunday we boated 15 nice Walleye and lots of Smallies and a nice Pike. Sat. we also boated good numbers of Walleye and smallmouth. The Walleye were all caught jigging grubs and minnow style plastics on deep weedlines throughout the lake. Here is a typical Walleye one of my customers caught on Sunday.

On the Sat. trip I had 4 guys out and they all caught a few fish including this pig smallmouth that crushed a jerkbait. We were catching our bass on tube jigs and jerkbaits in 4- 10ft of water with rocks and scattered weed clumps.

Aside from all the fish we caught the highlight for me was the gourmet lunch my customers brought in a monster cooler.... even ate on china plates!!

Stay safe and Good Fish'n.... Greg.
