Walleye and Northern Pike Biting on Lake Oahe

Tuesday was nice but a little windy, so we decided to test the pike fishing. We caught a bunch in a little bay along the south side of the Little Bend peninsula. They were between 5 and 12 pounds, all chunky guys. We laid large dead smelt near the bottom in about 12 feet of water, and had action all afternoon.

On Thursday I was able to get up to Joe's Creek and try for some walleye. Not disappointed. I caught 10 in about 25 feet of water on minnows moving very slowly. The largest was 25 inches, the smallest 17 inches. Also caught a couple of very nice smallies. I hope to get out again soon.
