Fishing NE SD in late September

[Selmer]

I'm planning a fishing trip the last weekend of September with some friends. We're looking in the Waubay/Bitter/Enemy Swim area. What would you guys recommend for basically anything that's biting? I know Enemy Swim pretty well, Waubay a little bit, but the rest of them up there are mostly foreign to me. Let me know if you have any recommendations.

I can't speak for that area in the fall, but Lake Thompson to the south is usually a safe bet.
The fishing rods usually take the back burner to the shotguns this time of year. On the other hand, the fishing is great when I do get out.

Yeah, I remember the good old days of living in SD, I probably be plucking geese right now if I was still living up there! I've fished the NE lakes a lot, I grew up and lived in SD for 22 years, I'm 25 now. My boss and his friends want to go try out the mythical fishing that I talk about, but I've never spent much time at it, like Mike, I'm spending too much time getting high on the sound of geese and the smell of burnt gun powder. I know Enemy Swim quite well as far as structure is concerned, I worked at the LO camp up there for three summers, but I never got to fish it in the fall because of hunting and work. Pickerel and Roy are two other lakes nearby that I haven't fished much, any tips on them are welcome. The guys down here are gag over Waubay, but I always did better on other lakes than Waubay, and didn't worry as much about the wind and weather! Lake Thompson is not one of my favorite lakes, we had a smaller boat and we were a little undergunned on Thompson, we only lived 15-20 minutes away from the north side of Thompson. Thanks for any help.
