GOING TO LAKE OKOBOJI FOR A FAMILY VACATION AROUND JULY 11,
FIRST TIME GOING THERE. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY INFO ON THE WALLEYE,SMALL MOUTH AND BLUEGILL FISHING. BAITS AND PLACES TO START OUT AT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.I HAVE A 10 YR OLD WHO LOVES TOCATCH FISH

I won't try to guess what will be working the 2nd week of July for Walleyes in the bigger lakes. But the bluegills have been consistent in the smaller lake Minnewashta for quite a few years, start close to shore in the shady areas and under docks with a small bobber, hook and piece of worm.
Also the weekend pleasure boaters & jetski traffic can be unreal and put a big damper on your fishing fun at Okoboji. I'd plan to fish during the week and do something else on the weekends.
