Lake Minnetonka Fishing Report
Featuring walleye, Largemouth Bass and Smallmouth Bass, Northern Pike and Panfish Name: Dave Lake_MinnetonkaJoe from Watertown: How would you know how good or bad the fishing is on Minnetonka unless you've been fishing it yourself? You are telling everyone else not to fish it, yet you are. You seem quite angry anyone would dare fish this lake (or should I say your lake). I hate to tell you, but ANYONE fishing legally has a right to wet a line in ANY lake or river in the state. If you want the fishing to improve, why don't you take your own advise and stop fishing for the next few years! Name: Tom D Lake_MinnetonkaMy folks are going to be visiting with me here in the Cities over Memorial Day weekend. I want to rent a pontoon boat on Lake Minnetonka. Does anyone know of a marina that rents them? Thanks! Tom Name: Heavy Lake_MinnetonkaBrenda-try the west end of downtown wayzata. Theres an inlet off barry st. Nice easy spot to fish Name: Brenda Lake_MinnetonkaMy father is coming to visit and would like to fish on Lake Minnetonka - can anyone advise me of where there might be a fishing pier located on the lake that he can fish off of? Thanks! Name: DAVE Lake_MinnetonkaDid anyone fish minnetonka lately..? are the in the shallows yet? Name: Joe Lake_MinnetonkaMinnetonka Crappies are child's play! Not even worth fishing for!!If people would realize that and not fish them for awhile then maybe they will grow! Fools. Name: mike Lake_Minnetonkalooking for crappies in tonka from shore Name: ???????????????????? Lake_MinnetonkaThe bass love the channel by th old post office but it's illegal now but me and my friend cought 23 bass and a northern all bass were 3-5 pounds Name: Dave Lake_MinnetonkaJohn from Albertville: Just wondering how deep you were fishing. I tried Minnetonka Sunday and didn't do too well. Caught a couple, but the shallow bays weren't producing well. We tried in about 7 feet of water in the weeds on the main part of the lake and caught a couple right away and then nothing. I am taking my nephew this weekend and am hoping for better fishing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Name: John Lake_MinnetonkaYesterday day me and some friends went out to tonka bay and caught quite a bit of crappies. We released the smaller ones back and kept the ones a pound and a half and up. Caught our limit of 60 between all of us. We were using a small green/yellow jig with red eyes painted on. Worked really good.

Anybody got some insight on where to go to catch nice size crappies at of the start of the season? Name: justin Lake_MinnetonkaForest lake is a good place to go fishing but if you want another place like that on the lake try going to Peavy lake off of Browns bay. It is kinda hard to see you just have to go along the north side of the bay and you should see it. I have had much luck in there the past few seasons fishing for croppy later in the spring.

Name: Tish Lake_MinnetonkaWhere's the best place to ice-fish for walleye on Lake Minnetonka?? I had heard Brown's bay on the reef there and also Brackett's Point. Can anybody confirm? Thanks, dying to get out there... Name: Stan T Lake_Minnetonka12 inches of ice on Wayzata Bay as of 1/8/03. Picked up seven small walleye (10 inchers) between 4 and 5 p.m. No big fish to be found! Name: Paul Lake_MinnetonkaI was out on Tonka on Sunday(22nd)just to check out the ice and locate some points. I went in from the west of Browns bay and the ice was 6 to 7 inches across most of the bay. There is a large crack with open water running from Spirit Island to just east of Big Island. The snow was blowing and covering it up. It was at least 4 ft wide, so do not snowmobile or 4 wheel in this area. Be sure to travel in pairs and bring a rope if your going out. We need another week of below zero weather to make it safe. Good luck fishing. Name: Dave Lake_MinnetonkaHow's the ice fishing for pike? WHat is the ice depth? How's the pike fishing infront of the new pier? Name: sara Mccollumn Lake_Minnetonkathere was fish in the lake and strawberrys sara is in love with brian k Name: Zach G. Lake_MinnetonkaThe fishing on tonka' this last week has picked up a lot. Northerns and bass are hitting size 5-6 Mepps spinners in rainbow trout patterns, off the weed edges in about 12-17 feet of water. Early morning (3-6am) topwater action for largemouth has been hot. Pulling buzzbaits through some of the emerged vegetation on dropoffs have been the most productive. Best sport has been around the new bridge at grays bay. Daytime (12pm-5pm)when the fishing gets slow, i have found that the largemouth are clinging tight to docks and piers. I've been fairly successful in pulling them out with a 3/8-1/2 ounce jig and pig. Make sure you get them as close as possible and as far under the docks as you can. Name: DarkSide Lake_MinnetonkaThis is a lake I fish because it's close. I have tips, and i'd like to exchange thjem...cause it's so late...I'll let someone else start but I will be back.
