In this addition of the Wigwam Fishing Report Video, the Wigwam Fisherman gets the pleasure of testing out of few new lures from JR’s Tackle with the boys from JR’s (Joel, Lance & Ed). Even with the huge change in temperature (40 degrees to 6 degrees) in 12 hours. The fish were still active and biting with authority. We fished in 29 & 32 feet of water west of the Big Pine on Pine Island, which is about 3 miles out from Pine. The hot lure on the day was the “Hot Tamale” (Pink/Glitter Glow Gold) with a live or frozen Shiner, either worked with similar success. I just wanted to thank everyone once again for paying attention to this report, and hopefully it will give you the success you’re looking for while fishing on the World’s Best Hard Water Fishery, Lake of the Woods. Happy Fishing and God Bless! PS – If you’d like to submit a name for JR’s “New Lure”, please send all your submissions to the Wigwam Resort, Attention JR’s New Lure, at wigwam@wiktel.com.
The Wigwam Fisherman takes you on another Lake of the Woods adventure on the World’s Best Hard Water Fishery in this addition of the Wigwam Fishing Repot. The Sauger bite is indescribable and out of this world at this particular moment in our history, and just plain old fun! The fish are still crusing in 18 – 23 feet of water from Morris to Lighthouse Gaps. Our buddies with a few other resorts in the area have started to move out just a tad bit deeper in 25 -27 feet and finding some more Walleyes, but not in the concentration that we’re finding the Saugers currently. Also the people that are moving out deeper are fighting some bad spots in the ice and you must only proceed with caution when traveling to far off Pine Island. Happy Fishing and be safe…God Bless.
Hey did anyone else think that fella from JR`s tackle looked like Wee Mans big buddy ??
call the new lure the “toothpick”
i think it should be called ” trainwreck”
Call it “The Juggernaut”
(Gold Digger) Im heading up in the A.m. from iowa
Name it the (double hot tamale) jig or spoon for the end
“Da Fish Magnet”
I think the “The ButterStik” would be a good name
Call it “Day Dream”
Call it the Stickler
it should be called the ”
red eyed slayer” comin from roseville mn see u guys up there soon!
* “Sauger Capitol of the World!”
The lure should be known as the “Golden Guru”
“Golden Guru”
I’d call it the Banana Split
The New “Old Yeller”
That’s my opinion from Kuwait…see you guys in a month
Yellow Submarine or The Submarine
“Bannana Hammock”
I think the “Freight Train” would be a good name for the new lure.
