Going to Lac Seul first week in August, Was there last year and was unseasonably cold and wet and they said fishing was not normal.
What are the typical patterns in a NORMAL August on Lac Seul. Where would be the best places to target. Depths and Techniques?
Thanks for any help.

In a normal August on Seul look for flat areas around 30 ft of water, while marking a straight line of baitfish tight to bottom on your graph. These are smelt...the main diet in August.
Often "dead sticking" with live bait is the key to success here.
Good Luck

Joeman,
Were going to Fisherman's Cove, Scout Bay Northwest end of Lac Seul.....I recently saw some Babe Winkelman TV shows when he was at Lost Island Lodge current and from years ago.....looks like a nice family run resort.....hope the fishing is GREAT as always on Lac Seul and with the early spring this year, hope that this summer's weather is better than last!!!
Only 3 more months to go.....and counting down the days!

August in the best time for Lac Seul. Water is higher, bugs are almost non-existent, walleyes are on the bite.
Fish points and sunken islands anywhere from 15 to 35ft, it might take the 1st day to pattern the fish but once you do catching 50-100 walleye a day can be done. First, if we do not graph fish we do not fish a spot. Once located, suggest start with 1-2oz bottom bouncer so can cover water quicker. We use primarily 1/2 night crawler on a single hook, with a 4 to 7ft snell.
