Subject: Hayward Fishing Report

The weather in the Hayward area has been very hot and humid the last month and a half. It has caused a slow down in the musky action, but the good news is that several other species have filled the gap for those willing to make a switch.
There are still some nice muskies being caught in the area, but overall action for numbers is being reported as down by most folks. Several large fish have been boated. LCO has given up two fish over 50"s that I know of and the Big Chip has given up a few in the upper 40" class as well. Kent Dumonseau caught and released a nice 27# fish with me during one of the few weather changes that we have had in the last month. It was only Kent's second musky and largest to date.

With the decrease in musky action some folks are making a switch to other species trying to stay on fish. LCO has been absolutely on fire for big smallmouth. Every day folks are putting several fish in the boat that are in the 14" to 19" range. These fish are coming shallow with evenings being the most productive times. Leeches are the preferred bait. Bruce from Angler's Haven says that this is the best smallie fishing that he has ever seen.
I have been doing a lot more walleye fishing then normal to beat the heat. I started out getting out after dark for muskies to beat the heat and have discovered an open water bite that has been outstanding to say the least. This pattern is working on several of the area lakes. I have no idea why these fish are so active, but it is fun while it lasts. The biggest problem is catching fish that are of eating size. Most of the action is on larger fish. We are practicing CPR on these bigger fish and hope that you do the same. Only 4 out of the last 17 fish have been under 4#s!!!!!!!!!!
