Lake of the Woods was stocked with trophy and legal rainbow trout this week . For recent fishing updates call the Lake of the Woods resort at 1-866-201-4194 (option 4). Fishing should improve with hot weather this week.
The lake is dominated by stunted yellow perch. Very small bait and hooks will catch these fish. Fishing will be slow for yellow perch. They will be schooling.
Largemouth and smallmouth bass fishing is picking up. Best fishing for largemouth is along the lily pads on the northeast side of the lake.
