The walleye bite on Mille Lacs Lake continues to produce some nice catches. This past week we have continued to have cooler below normal temperatures for the end of May. The surface temperature on Mille Lacs remains in the low 50's. With these cooler water temperatures the walleye are continuing to be caught in the shallow sand breaks on the north end. I have caught some nice fish in a few of the transition areas from soft bottom to rocks. The best depths in these areas have been in the 22-25 fow. Up on the north end sand we are still finding the fish on the breaks in 17-19 fow. If you are not finding and catching fish, make a slight move either shallower or go out into some deeper water. Leeches on long lindy rigs are still putting the most fish in the boat. On windy days such as this past Monday we caught a few fish slip bobber fishing the rocks along shore in 15-17 fow. The shallow rock bite is still going during the last hour of the evening. Fishing in 8-12 feet using a leech under a lighted slip bobber.

With these cooler water temperatures holding in the lower 50's I would guess we will continue to see some pretty good fishing into the month of June. With the turn of the page on the calendar comes a new month and one of the best months for fishing Mille Lacs Lake
