Waconia Question

[Daze Off]

Wondering if anyone has been out there recently and can give me an idea of the water quality/clarity? I heard there was a bad algae bloom a couple of weeks ago but have not heard whether it had cleared by now. Hate to fish in pea soup...wanted to go out there this weekend for bass.

The water clarity has improved to early summer conditions. ~2 ft visability.

The fish are getting aggressive out there and fat.

Good luck

I spend alot of time on waconia fishing bass. Was out there today, Bring ur flipping stick, your going to need it

Was on Wac on Suday. I only saw one other boat crazy enough to bear that wind ane we were both fishing around the rock dock area northern parts of wagners bay. Launched at 5:45am from public access on east side. Only one there when we launched, only one there when we left. Fished until 10:30 or so. 3 bass total. Very windy, Had intended on fishing outer edges of a couple reefs... That didn't happen because of conditions. Had to improvise and fished the non windy side (NNW) side. Fished some docks with very minimal success. Tough day on the water. I got completely soaked from the 2-3 foot rollers on the south east side. Water quality has improved though. I think the cold front with the extreme wind may have had a little bit to do with the poor fishing on Sunday.... Just a guess.

Sounds like the weather for Saturday is supposed to be overcast and soggy - have not heard what the wind prediction is at this point yet but I know from past experience that Waconia can pummel you on windy days - had a day like that on Gull Chain a couple of weeks ago with the 2-ft rollers. Did the same thing - went to the smaller/protected waters.

I was planning on throwing cranks/spinnerbaits/buizzbaits over the cabbage/weed flats to start the day and adjusting from there based on the conditions. Always carry a flippin stick tho.....Thanks for the info!
