Fewer fishermen have been out in the last week due to the windy weather. Those that have ventured out are catching awesome crappie and walleye by the culverts on Willmar and Foot Lakes. Anglers are still pulling walleye from the shore on Lake Lillian and Wagonga Lake. Those still venturing out with boats are finding the bite has slowed a bit on Big Kandiyohi Lake, Minnetaga Lake and Lake Elizabeth. The next two weekends should be excellent for fishing in the Willmar Lakes Area!
