あらすじ・解説
For December 12, 2024, here’s your local fishing report for Lake Winnebago, Wisconsin.
First off, since Lake Winnebago is an inland lake, you don't have to worry about tides affecting your fishing trip. The weather this time of year is typically cold, with temperatures often below freezing. Be prepared for extreme cold, as it can impact fish activity.
Sunrise today is around 7:15 AM, and sunset is about 4:15 PM, giving you a good window for ice fishing. The lake is likely frozen, making ice fishing the way to go.
Fish activity has been good, especially for walleye, perch, and northern pike. Yesterday, anglers reported catching walleye in the 12-to 23-inch range, along with a healthy number of perch and some larger northern pike.
For walleye, the best techniques include trolling with size 4 to 7 Salmo lures or using slip bobbers with night crawlers or leeches, especially in the evening near rock piles and shorelines. For perch, small jigs and tiny spoons work well. Northern pike are often caught using larger spoons and suckers as bait.
Hot spots to consider are the east shore, particularly around the primary break, reefs, and rock humps. For pike, the western shore and smaller bodies of water in the Winnebago Chain are highly productive. High Cliff State Park and Kelly’s Point and Reef are also excellent locations, with the latter being a favorite for walleye due to its weed beds and underwater structure.
Make sure to bundle up, as the cold temperatures can be harsh. With the right gear and knowledge, you should have a successful day on Lake Winnebago.
