Lake Poinsett has a strong walleye bite deep pulling lead core and casting #7 Flicker Shads. There are a lot of northern pike as well, and some are very large. There are a few jumbo perch that are starting to bite and will start biting strong in August.
Lake Cochrane has a fun and easy bite for bluegill and crappie. Mike uses bobbers with minnows or crawlers. There are a lot of fish being caught.
Bitter Lake has a very good walleye bite. The fat and healthy fish tend to be in the shallows.
Lake Thompson has a lot of northern pike in the 2 to 5-lb. Range. The walleye are strong between pike bites. Mike recommends using a lot of different lures.
The Missouri River and Lake Francis Case are still the most incredible bites that this area of the Missouri River has ever seen. Consistent walleye in the 19” range can be caught with bottom bouncers and crawlers or lead core and cranks.
Shallow lakes are starting to shut off. No rain and the very hot temps has brought the little bodies of water to an extreme water temperature, which has hurt the fish.
