Lake of The Woods Reports

9/9/19

 Spent 8 days on LOTW over the Labor  Day holiday with a group of six fellow anglers.  My time was split  between doing some walleye fishing and also participating in my first  tournament, Bassin' for Bucks.  Both were fun and productive, but  ultimately we had to withdrawal from the tournament because of a bout  with what appeared to be food poisoning.  But I have to say, I learned a  lot about tournament fishing, the build up, the planning and also about  how the team must have a common direction and be able to adapt to  changes.  I also learned that I have much to learn about bass fishing on  LOTW, as most of my time is usually spent fishing for walleye when I am  there.  But regardless, it was a very educational event for me as I got  to fish areas on the water that I had never fished before and also use  techniques I had never applied before as well.
 

 

As far as the fishing, the group  caught a lot of fish during the trip including walleye, SMB, LMB,  crappie, perch, pike, sauger and also a few run-ins with some muskie as  well.  I did not spend as much time walleye fishing as I normally do on  LOTW, but the fish I did catch were very solid fish with the bigger ones  coming from the Whitefish Bay area.  

 

The highlight of my week came on the  last day fishing by myself when I landed my fish of the week, a 29 inch  walleye that weighted in at just under 10 pounds

So  my 2019 LOTW season has come to a close.  The entire Midwest of the US  and lower part of Canada experienced one of the most bizarre weather  years I have seen which caused fishermen this year to be very adaptive.   Having to be adaptive is not necessarily a bad thing though, as it  causes one to fish in manners and places outside one's comfort zone and  in the end one learns things that one may not have known before.
