In the days building up to opener I feel as if I am starting all over again, hoping I am not forgetting anything and trying to remember how it all works! I am really thinking that this is going to be a great opener for all of us anglers on Lake Mille Lacs.
Look for the North sand to be a hot bite, the best bet is to use a long snell tipped with a leech. However during the day if the wind has picked up you can try moving to shallow rock piles from 6-12 feet, remember some of these fish are difficult to graph in shallow waters so this will be a trial and error, trust me you'll know if they're there.
Remember opening weekend is a great opportunity to take advantage of the late night bite! If you do not know Lake Mille Lacs that well than you may be unaware that there is a night ban that takes effect Monday May 11th at 10pm. If you have a tough time during the day or just haven't had enough try to get up on a shallow rock pile at night, this is where the Walleye's like to feed.
See you on the water!

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
