dudewheresmyboat Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Looking to spend a weekend in Park Rapids area, any recommendations of a "good" bass lake/s? Looking to get the girl on a few hogs any help would be great! Will be staying near Long Lake, willing to travel for a good bite.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Well, if you're on Long, you have one right there.In all seriousness, most of the lakes in that area have good bass fisheries. I've fished dozens in that area, and most of them are worth while. You won't have to go far. Spend a little time on the DNR's Lakefinder and look at some lake surveys, and pick a few to try.

NELS-BELLS Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 We spend a week in the Park Rapids area about this time every year. We are on Eagle but we also trailer the boat to various lakes looking for the bass gold mine. Have yet to find it, but I'm sure that is due to the time of year! Some lakes are a little better then others. We have never been able to put together a solid pattern at this time of year. We catch some on deep weedlines and some up shallow, with the deep fish being a little larger. Don't overlook docks. Obviously dusk and dawn are the best!I know this isn't much help, but remember that bass fishing now, isn't what it was in June. Just appreciate the beauty of the lakes in that area.Good luck!Nels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmyboat Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Thank you Sir that gives me an idea of where to start and if all else fails i'll be the guy with the talon down, swimming and having a cold one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Grande Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I was at a cabin on Little Man Trap this past weekend. Beautiful lake with close to 15' water clarity. Fishing was hit or miss and with the colder weather, there didn't seem to be many fish in shallow. Got some decent bass on the weedline, but nothing to write home about. The boat we were fishing out of didn't have electronics so trying to stay on the weedline with my Marcum was tricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
