Sioux Narrows Fishing Reports.....


Recommended Posts

Someone must be fishing in the area on this board. I'm just trying to get some ideas on depths and what the fish are doing. I'll hit all my usual spots, but sometimes I find getting a depth range helps. Thanks!

Redline,

I just got back from the Sioux Lookout area, so there shouldn't be a huge difference. We caught our walleyes in 2-30 feet of water, depending on the wind variable, but our most consistent depth range was 13 feet. Anything shallower than that was where the pike were. Fishing was really good this year where we were. Good luck!!!

Thanks for the tip. Any time I can get info about staying away from slimers is much appreciated! Who cares where the walleyes are at,, I just want to know where NOT to fish!

If you wouldn't mind, What was your average size of walleye? Like, what was common? Thanks!

We caught a ton (seemingly) of 23" to 25" fish. Lots of slot fish, i.e. 18-21. Had to work for the "small ones", i.e. underneath the slot for take home fish. In 7 days, I think we only caught about 4 walleyes total that were completely, utterly, and unacceptably waaaay too small. Even for shorelunch.

Sorry if this is a late reply, just got back home from a long weekend.

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
