Do U have any idea how big Lake Winnipeg is??

They fish the south end for eyes in the winter and in the fall some guys head out just beyond the Winnipeg River for eyes. There are lots of fish in the lake but I really don't believe many guys target fish in the lake due to it size and it can get real rough quick. There lots of other areas to fish.

I used to fish the lagoon near grand beach when I was in high school but never went out on the lake propper, I know the lake is not theaqt deep - something like 50 to 75 feet at the deepest

Lake Winnipeg is the 10th largest lake on the planet and in many respects it has many similarites of Lake Erie.
There is a hugh commercial gill netting industry on Lake Winnipeg, the most sought after species is walleye, sauger, whitefish and pike.
Yes the lake is massive and does present problems when the wind comes....doesn't this apply to all large bodies of water?
Winnipeg is as fishable as any other of it's countparts. (I wonder if they sport fish on Lake Erie, get my point)
If the gill netting industry would trade in their gill nets for charter boats like they did on Erie, the potentials would be unlimited! It's estimated that lake winnipeg's gil net industry enerates twenty million dollars anually......Erie's sportfishing industry generates over five hundred million!!!!!!!

Fish Hard!
