The weather is definitely nicer this week, mid 80's. We have a chance for rain Thursday and Friday that we can definitely use. It is very dry and water levels are low. USGS gage height is 5.01' at Manitou Rapids as of today. That's down from approximately 6.75' just last Friday. I can tell by the bay of course. The rapids from the Rapid River (left)are very low. Water temps are still warm and the boys have been loving that to swim. Fishing is good in the evening. We're seeing more walleyes and sauger mostly in the 15-17" range. Bass are more quiet and northern are getting bigger 22-26" range. Fishing is good along the shoreline and better by the inlets and bays going into the river about 8-10' of water. Sturgeon don't seem to know their out out of season till July 1st. Couple anglers have got a sneek peek of them this week.
