Lac Des Mille Lacs

[TECK]

Anybody know how the fishing has been? Going up on the 12.

Went up there over Memorial Day Weekend and the fishing was slow. I talked to some guys that have been going up there for the past 20 years and they said fishing was the slowest they've ever seen it.

Surface temps were hanging around 50. We had most of our luck around Fisherman's Island.

Good Luck!

I hope you do better than we did up there.

I heard a rumor that as of a couple a weeks ago there is still ice in the bays. Is this true?

[nuts]

I didn't see any ice when I was up there. In fact, the resort owners said the ice had been off for about two weeks when we were up there.

Thanks for the reply Nuts. I didn't think this was possible as I seen your earlier post which said surface temps were around 50.

Just returned and the fishing was great! Fish were in 20 feet of water with the bigger fish coming out of Bolton Bay. Hook produced lots of fish but nothing over 20 inches. The water temps were between 56 and 60. Hope this helps. We put in at Pine Point!

Just got back . Had a great time lots of fish.Most were in 6' to 11' of water. Orange or black jig tiped with minnows. Good luck and have a great time. (We did)

Hello!

Does anyone fish Lac Des Mille Lacs in early August? I am planning on fishing the lake then and wondered if anyone has any tips? I have fished the lake a few times many years ago, and we will be putting in at Pine Point.

Thank you,
