Brainerd Lakes Area Fishing Report

The ice is almost off Gull Lake, and the bay of North Long on 371 is ice free. It won't be long until the crappie bite starts happening.

Check out the latest fishing report below:

BRAINERD/NISSWA AREA 
There’s too much ice to get a boat in and not enough to walk on. The shorelines have pulled away, and most of the ice that remains is floating. Some anglers have started fishing on piers or in channels and ditches with poor crappie-fishing success. Look to these areas and those small lakes that open first to provide the first open-water panfish bite of the season.

BRAINERD/NISSWA AREA
North Long Lake, Round Lake, and several other small lakes were producing sunfish in 5 to 12 feet and crappies in 10 to 20 feet early this week. But with the warm weather, those options might not exist by this weekend, so call ahead.

BRAINERD/NISSWA AREA 

The north end of Gull Lake continues to produce walleyes in 22 to 26 feet on shiner minnows. North Long Lake, Round Lake, and the south end of Gull are worth hitting for crappies in 12 to 26 feet, depending on the lake. Look for northern pike in 12 to 20 feet on Cullen Lake, Gull, or North Long, while Nisswa Lake, North Long, and Round are giving up sunfish in 8 to 12 feet.
