BEST METRO WATER

[Guest]

JUST CURIOUS, WHAT DO PEOPLE THINK THE BEST METRO AREA WALLEYE WATERS ARE???????

[Fathead]

Hi KOZ,

Well, Clearwater lake in Annandale probably doesnt qualify as "Metro", but this lake is definetely top notch. It is the best lake within an hour of the cities (in my opinion).

Other good lakes are Buffalo, Pulaski (clear water and tougher to fish, until you get toknow it). North Center is another very good lake, as well as Big Green in Chisago county.

If I am walleye fishing in the Metro, these are the areas I'm hitting.

If you mean truly "in the metro", it's WHITE BEAR hands down. I too like North Center and South Center, but I don't consider them "in" the cities. I live about fifteen minutes from "the Bear" and fish it almost every week most summers. This summer is the exception since I have ran to the "Walleye Suicide Alley of 2002" four out of the last six weeks. However two hour trips are going to be curtailed for the next couple months, so I'll be fishing the Bear and the Croix. I'm often in my boat alone on Friday or Saturday evenings. E-mail me if you want to jump in the boat sometime. This offer is open to all FM contributors, but priority is given to those without boats. I spent several years fishing from shore and piers before I bought a boat, and often wished that the guys who I saw going out in a boat all by themselves would offer to take me out on the lake.
To contact me, check out the following link. I'm the one listed as treasurer.
