There are some real nice walleye in excess of 10 pounds in Moose Lake and each outing is usually rewarded with a five or six pounder. Even the average walleye in Moose Lake is between three and four pounds. This is one of those lakes that just seems to get better as the season progresses.

   Moose Lake has every type of structure you could throw at a walleye angler and the walleye them all. There is a tremendous population of perch in Moose Lake and weeds are a very important element throughout the year. During periods of stable weather, this is by far the most consistent bite. Concentrate on the reeds near fast breaking slopes and in the heavy weeds around Pelican Point.

  Jigs are a natural on Moose Lake, as are live bait rigs with a spinning float like the Spin-N-Glo. Yellow and chartreuse work extremely well in the weeds and don't be afraid to use a fairly sizeable offering with an aggressive presentation. When things really heat up in July and August, try casting rattling crank baits into the weeds. You may want to use a black leader in conjunction with the crank bait. The pike are extremely voracious.

   If the fish in the weeds are not going, there is some good mid-lake structure and points that are always productive. Another area to try, especially early in the season, is the rip rap around the pump house at the east arm of the lake. There is a suspended population of pike and walleye that also inhabit the east arm of the lake. These walleye will follow the cisco toward the surface in the evening and feed heavily. Try casting or trolling Thinfins.
