  • Late Fall Fishing Forecast for Wisconsin's Lake Winnebago

    Late Fall Fishing Forecast for Wisconsin's Lake Winnebago
    Nov 2 2024
    As of November 2nd, Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin is in the midst of its late fall fishing season, a time when the water temperatures are cooling down and the fish are becoming more active. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the lake.

    ### Weather and Time
    The sunrise today is at around 6:30 AM, and the sunset will be at about 4:30 PM. The weather forecast indicates a partly cloudy day with temperatures ranging from the mid-40s to the mid-50s Fahrenheit, making it a comfortable day for fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a good amount of fish activity, particularly with perch, walleye, bluegill, and crappie. Fish are commonly moving throughout the lake following schools of baitfish, so finding a bait ball or classic sonar arc on the depth finder can be key to locating them.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Anglers reported catching a decent number of perch, with some areas yielding up to a dozen or more per hour. Walleye catches were also promising, with several reports of fish in the 15-20 inch range. Bluegill and crappie were also active, especially in the shallower waters.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For perch, using small jigs tipped with minnows or waxworms has been effective. Walleye are biting on jigging spoons and crankbaits, especially those that mimic the baitfish they are chasing. Bluegill and crappie are responding well to small jigs with tiny minnows or crappie jigs.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the area around the Fond du Lac River mouth, where the walleye and perch have been congregating. Another good spot is the western shore of the lake, particularly around the areas with submerged weed beds, which are attracting bluegill and crappie.

    ### Tidal Report
    Lake Winnebago is a freshwater lake and does not have tides, so you don't need to worry about tidal changes affecting your fishing.

    Overall, it looks like it will be a great day to get out on Lake Winnebago and catch some fish. Make sure to dress warmly and be prepared for the cooler weather. Good luck

  • Lake Winnebago Late Fall Fishing: Walleye, Pike, and Perch Thrive in Cooling Waters

    Lake Winnebago Late Fall Fishing: Walleye, Pike, and Perch Thrive in Cooling Waters
    Nov 1 2024
    As of November 1st, Lake Winnebago is gearing up for the late fall fishing season, a time when the water temperatures are cooling down and the fish are becoming more active.

    ### Weather and Conditions
    Today, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 50°F and a low of 35°F. The winds are moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10 mph. Sunrise is at 6:47 AM, and sunset will be at 4:43 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    In the late fall, Lake Winnebago's fish are transitioning to deeper waters. Walleye, one of the most sought-after species here, can be found in the main lake basin and along the primary break on the east shoreline. Northern pike, largemouth bass, and perch are also active, particularly in the shallow bays and boating channels.

    ### Yesterday's Catch
    Yesterday saw a decent catch of walleye, with several anglers reporting success using small crankbaits like Flicker Shad #5's and Salmo Hornets in metallic clown, purple, and pink colors. Some big smallmouth bass were also caught, especially around the rock piles where they are feeding heavily on crayfish. Perch were active on the reefs, with anglers using egg sinkers and hooks tipped with hellgrammites, wax worms, or pieces of nightcrawlers.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For walleye, trolling deep-diving crankbaits that run 8 to 12 feet deep, such as Bomber Long-A’s and Rebel Fastracs, is highly effective. Using planer boards to keep the baits away from the boat can also increase your chances. For perch, a slip-bobber rig with live bait like hellgrammites or wax worms works well. Northern pike and largemouth bass can be caught using spinnerbaits, especially in the shallow bays and boating channels.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the best spots to try your luck is along the primary break on the east shoreline, where walleye tend to congregate. The rock reefs along the western shore are also excellent, particularly during periods of reduced water clarity and increased wave action. For perch, the southern third of the lake is a good area to start, especially early in the season.

    ### Additional Tips
    Be cautious of shallow unmarked reefs and sand bars, especially when navigating close to shore and near islands. With the changing weather, keep an eye on ice conditions if you plan to ice fish later in the season.

    Overall, Lake Winnebago is offering some great fishing opportunities as we head into the late fall season. Make sure to check local fishing regulations and consult with guides or marinas for the most up-to-date information.

  • Chilly Walleye Bite on Lake Winnebago - Anglers Reap Rewards Despite Brisk Winds and Showers

    Chilly Walleye Bite on Lake Winnebago - Anglers Reap Rewards Despite Brisk Winds and Showers
    Oct 31 2024
    As of October 31, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Winnebago, Wisconsin is quite active despite the chilly weather. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Water Conditions
    Today, expect south winds to pick up from 10 to 20 knots, becoming southwest at 20 to 30 knots in the afternoon. There's a likelihood of rain showers in the morning, so be prepared with the right gear. Water temperatures are cooling down, but this hasn't deterred the fish from biting.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at around 6:30 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 4:30 PM, giving you a good window to catch both morning and evening bites.

    ### Fish Activity
    Walleyes are still active in the area, particularly in the Wolf River and transitioning back into the lake. The bite has been consistent throughout the day. Anglers have reported catching walleyes, as well as drum and perch, in various spots.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For walleyes, dragging nightcrawlers with Northland Fishing Tackle Thumper Jigs or a Carolina rig has been highly effective. Colors like orange, gold, and green are working well. Hair jigs in purple, black, orange, and chartreuse are also catching fish. For those targeting white bass, jigs paired with plastics and crankbaits are good options, but pulling flies, especially in purple, has been the most successful method.

    ### Hot Spots
    Focus on the Wolf River from Fremont down into Lake Winnebago. The river's bottom areas are holding a lot of walleyes. Additionally, the mid-lake areas and the transition zones from rock to mud are good spots to explore.

    ### Tidal Report
    Lake Winnebago is a freshwater lake, so there are no tides to consider. However, the wind can significantly impact water conditions, making it important to check the latest wind forecasts before heading out.

    Overall, Lake Winnebago is offering some great fishing opportunities right now. Make sure to dress warmly and be prepared for the changing weather conditions. With the right lures and bait, you should be able to catch a good number of fish. Happy fishing
