Minnesota Walleye Fishing Doesn't Get Any Better Than This!

Walleye Fishing On Lake Winnie means lunker walleyes. When it comes to walleye fishing in Minnesota, few lakes enjoy the great reputation Lake Winnibigoshish has as one of Minnesota's premier world-class walleye fishing lakes. Lake Winnie offers great structure and has large numbers of Walleye, Northern Pike, Largemouth Bass, Muskie, Crappie, Perch and panfish. It is also the home of the state record Muskie.

At The Pines Resort & Campground we provide all the things you need to bring home fish for dinner during your stay here. We offer boat and motor rental, a concrete boat launching ramp, live bait, tackle, gas, oil and individual boat slips. We can also arrange for guide service by some of the area's top professional guides.

(Check out the Weekly Fishing Report and Helpful Fishing Links below)

The fishing pros will tell you that Winnibigoshish is truly an anglers paradise famous for walleyes, perch, northerns and muskie. Work the rocks with bottom bouncers or live bait rigs on the shallow sand bars and reefs. Follow the weedlines or fish the deep water structures where the big walleye feed. No matter where you go on "Winnie" you will find a walleye dinner just waiting to be caught.

Lake Winnibigoshish also has some of the best winter perch fishing in the world, along with great winter walleye & northern pike too! For more information click on the Ice Fishing menu on the left.

Lake Winnibigoshish Fishing Report

The Lake Winnibigoshish Weekly Fishing Report is proudly brought to you by The Pines Resort & RV Campground...your full-service Minnesota Fishing and Family Vacation Resort located on Lake Winnie at Winnie Dam Bay.

Our Fishing Reports will return in late November. Until then, please check out our Ice Fishing Report here.

Sample Report: For the Week of: Sept 1, 2009

The walleyes are starting the fall transition from the deep water back to the shorelines. The best areas now are the North Shore, the Highbanks area and the Bowens Flats area, with the best depths from 7 to 12 feet on a jig and minnow. Trolling crankbaits above the weeds in the Three Sisters area has also been producing in the evening hours. Perch are still biting in the rock areas on the north and west shore on jigs and minnows . Northern pike have been scattered, but look to the weedlines in 8 to 12 feet for them.

Have a great week on the water.
