I went up to Lake Winnie on our annual family and friends fishing trip last week. Northern fishing was a little slow. We caught quite a few of the smaller ones, but too small to be worth keeping and eating. The walleyes were a little better a few days. I think the slot limit they have on that lake (17"-26" returned immediately) has helped. We caught a lot of fish in the upper range of the slot and even above the slot too.
Here is one 25" walleye I caught using a slipsinker and a floating jig head tipped with a leech. That gash on his side was kind of interesting. It looked halfway fresh, but I don't think he did it during the catch at all.
This walleyes was also 25" long and caught with the same set up as the other one.
My uncle proved not to be the best camera man in this photo.
We caught a decent amount of fish that were less than 14", but also had our share of the eating size around 15"-17". We ate fish twice during the week up there and brought back several pounds of it also. All in all, a good week.
