Limits of walleyes are coming from the lake and Rainy River. The current is strong in the river, so bigger jigs up to 1 ounce have been best in 8 to 10 feet of water. Farther upstream, the mouth of the Little Fork River is producing walleyes on jigs and minnows. On the main lake, 12 to 14 feet has been key around Morris Point, Lighthouse Gap, Wheeler's Point and the west end of Pine Island. Look for walleyes around the islands in the Northwest Angle area.DEVILS LAKEA few anglers have reported working the bridges and catching lots of smaller walleyes, but finding few eating-sized and larger fish. According to the most recent report from Ed's Bait Shop, anglers before last week's wind and rain were doing well trolling crankbaits or bottom bouncers or jigging and working ledges or rocks. Good spots included the north end of Six Mile, the sunken roads in Pelican and the Minnewaukan Flats, along with rocky points in the Fort Totten and Cactus Point areas, Five Crows and the Stromme Addition. Shore fishing continues to produce some walleyes in the early morning and evening hours, but anglers report a slowdown in fishing success along the coulees.RED RIVERLocal reports are hard to come by, but if history is any indication, stretches of river near Grand Forks would be worth targeting for walleyes right now. Jigs and minnows or suckers floated off the bottom on a live-bait rig would be worth a shot. Given the lack of pressure, it's a matter of experimenting with locations and techniques until something produces.

Farther north, the Canadian side of the Red near Selkirk, Man., continues to produce plenty of action for “greenback” walleyes migrating upriver from Lake Winnipeg. Most anglers are anchoring and jigging with salted shiners, which are widely available in the Selkirk area, although trolling with crankbaits still is worth a try. The St. Andrews Lock and Dam in Lockport, Man., has been opened up for the annual fall drawdown, and flows are up a bit, but the increased current has improved fishing, if anything. Lack of clarity isn't a problem.BEMIDJI AREAWalleyes will hit minnows on Cass Lake, Lake Bemidji and Lake Plantagenet in 20 feet. Lake Irving is kicking out walleyes in shallower water.BLACKDUCK, MINN., AREALook to Gull Lake, Island Lake, and Blackduck Lake for walleyes in 7 to 10 feet.N.D. WATERFOWL UPDATEStrong northerly winds early this week moved large numbers of ducks and geese into North Dakota, but the weekly report from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service indicates that many of the birds kept going. Hunters should be on the lookout for whooping cranes, after at least five sightings were reported in recent days.
