Live The Adventure

  Here we have Kristin Armstrong with a 29.5 inch Walleye; the biggest one she has ever caught.  Walleye are beautiful fish and folks have been catching some big ones on Indian Lake.  Just yesterday morning, September 17th, 2023, three men in one boat caught roughly 70 walleyes.  They have fished Indian Lake many years so know where to go to find the fish this time of year.  But it still amazes me how many folks catch and the big sizes in this lake.  The fish population has definitely benefited from 3 years with few if any sportsmen in the area because of covid.  Fishing in the fall also has the benefit of no bugs and pretty nice weather.  Kristin caught this fish on a bit of a cold, blustery day and you see she is dressed for cold weather.  But we are still getting a few weeks now of temps with highs in the 70's and lows in the 40's.  More folks should consider fall fishing.  You just need to know that the fish are a little deeper in the 30 foot range and it's not hard to
