Amazing time on Lake Minnetonka

We had a fantastic day out on Prior Lake with customers, boating a total of eleven fish. The largest fish was Northern pike measuring nearly thirty-two inches and another coming in at eighteen and a half inches. We also caught three bass that were around twelve inches, along with four sunfish and two crappies. Conditions were ideal, with the water temperature between seventy-two and seventy-three degrees, a mix of cloudy and sunny weather, and a low wind at nine miles per hour. Great Father's day weekend.

Hit the water on Prior Lake early from 6:30 to 11:00 AM and managed to land a mixed bag including two very smaller bass, five decent sunnies, some crappies, and an 18-inch pike. It was a bit tough out there, but we still had a blast enjoying the nice time on the water. We noticed the water temperature dropped 5 degrees since last weekend, and with some rain overnight, the fish seemed to have moved deeper. Hopefully, things pick up next time!

Prior Lake provided some amazing action this morning from 6:00 AM to 8:50 AM. The water temperature was holding steady between 70 and 71 degrees. The bite was steady with three bass caught, ranging from a 12-inch smallest to a 14-inch biggest, along with three northern pike, with the smallest at 18 inches and the largest reaching an impressive 32 inches. In addition to the predators, we brought in a bunch of nice bluegills and crappies, with the largest crappie measuring 11 inches and the biggest bluegill hitting 10 inches. Anglers can expect great success despite a bit of wind, as I had steady cloud cover the whole time—just be sure to layer up!
