Fishing Report for 10-20-22

Fish remain in their fall feeding frenzy and are eager to bite, especially from mid-morning to late afternoon when the water has had a chance to warm. Jigs or spinners tipped with a sucker minnow or a fathead should catch the most fish. Walleye anglers are finding walleye in the shallows on Minnetaga Lake, Big Kandiyohi Lake, Lake Florida and Lake Lillian. Shore anglers are having success when using shallow-running stick baits. Slow presentations are the key this time of year. Other lakes to try this week would be Green, Willmar, Foot, and Ringo lakes. Remember that water temperatures are very cold so it is extremely important to wear a life jacket out on the water due to the risk of hypothermia.
