If all else fails, give minnows a try

Firstly, our apologies for not updating this blog any sooner. It's been on my 'to do' list for about three weeks now, but with a very busy start to the year, we've been busy making sure everyone has been comfortable and accomodated.
Today I thought it was important to talk about bait and fishing sucess.
We have many guests who bring crawlers, and leaches, and some who use purely artificial bait. Some of those people can do really well with them, while others not so much.
My point in writing this blog is to explain that while these kinds of bait may have worked really well this same time last year, but not so well this year, -it may not be because the fishing is slower, but that the walleyes prefer minnows over leaches, or crawlers.
We still encourage you to try them, especially since they can be more economical over minnows. But instead of being discouraged because you're not catching many fish, give minnows a try. We feel that you will have more success on Gullrock Lake with minnows over any other bait.
