Van Hook Arm - Monday, July 18, 2011

Report Details

Walleye fishing at Van Hook continues to be hot (on fire hot). The north end of Van Hook Arm is holding lots of fish and they're filling their bellies. Sunday and Monday I had 4 of us in the boat and both days took less than two hours to fill limits for all. Today we released 10 fish that were in the 3 lb class. If you choose to keep bigger fish, you could easily average 3 lbs. These fish are really fat and healthy. Using a lindy on a 3/4 oz bottom bouncer with half a crawler seems to work best for us.

Will not lie, I am suprised she has held on this long.  A good thing and well welcomed.  The 2005 year class is hanging on and hopefully we don't end up pounding on them too much but what's a guy to do?  Ha ha!  They are the only (mostly) keepable sized fish in the lake.  Three years from now it will be fantastic with 15 inchers.  Down right annoying in fact...but I'll take it!
