Fishing Report 8/6/25

by | Aug 6, 2025 | Fishing Report

Fishing in the Brainerd Lakes Area has been good! Of course it’s not every day that we go out and hammer them, but more often than not the “bite” has been good. Walleyes are all over the board (depth wise) and they are eating pretty well on the days with wind or overcast skies. We’ve been catching some rigging with minnows, but the slip bobber leech/crawler bite remains pretty strong. I’m sure you can catch them with whatever you have in your arsenal! The pike and bass fishing has remained pretty strong too and we are seeing an occasional musky too! Water temps were around 73 degrees this morning. We have had a really nice season thus far and we are hoping that the fishing stays strong right into the fall! We can only hope. Now’s the time to book your fall and winter trips! Call Shelley at 218-839-5598 to get on the calendar! Thanks for checking out the new site!

Blessings from the north,

It’s August! Lots of food in the lakes and a lot of the fish are well fed. Under the right conditions, things can be good but the best fishing is coming up later this fall. We continue to fish many of the lakes in and around the Brainerd area. Some of the walleyes are showing themselves on the humps and deep water points. We’ve been catching them on a variety of baits, but my favorite is rigging...

The fishing around the Brainerd Lakes Area has been good. When the wind blows and it’s overcast, the walleyes seem to be “in the mood”. If you just want the rod bending, you should be able to make that happen with either live or artificial baits. Leeches fished under a bobber, and over the top of the weeds will keep you really busy. The largemouth bass, smallmouth, walleyes and bluegills all...

“Dan is an incredible guide. He is personable and knows the Brainerd Lakes area like none other. I suggest anybody who wants to get into fishing and doesn’t want to spend all the time and money to try to figure out how to catch ‘em to just hired Dan and his team!”

“Four of us booked a four hour fishing trip with Walleyedan. Our guide was Dustin and he was so friendly and engaging with a wealth of knowledge and tips . We caught the amount of fish we wanted for a fish fry and man were they tasty. Besides Dustin’s skills, his friendly personality made the day. We HIGHLY recommend Walleyedan’s guide service.”

“Wonderful experience!! Our guide Chuck picked us up from our resort and was incredibly sweet. One person in our group had never touched a rod and landed a 42 inch plus musky. Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning!!”
