They may not always bite, but populations of “eater-size” walleyes and saugers in Lake of the Woods look good going into the winter season, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources said in reporting results from its annual fall gillnet survey.

That’s good news for anglers planning a winter trip to the big lake
 

Crews from the DNR’s area fisheries office in Baudette, Minnesota, tallied an average of 17.5 walleyes per net during this year’s fall survey, the DNR said. That’s above the historic average of 15.3 walleyes per net, but down from an average of 21.1 walleyes per net in 2023. Walleyes from 9 inches to 11 inches long were abundant, the DNR said, a “possible indication of an upcoming strong year-class” from 2021.
