Fishermen are excited about the fishing season. We're also seeing new-fishermen which is great. Folks are enjoying the stress free activity and come back in with smiles on their faces.
Fishing continues to be great in the Otter Tail Lake area. Walleyes continue to be found in 10 to 25 feet of water with crawlers and leeching. Night bite has been pretty good as well on crank baits in only 5 to 8 feet of water.
Sunfish and crappies are biting on the smaller lakes like usual. Now being found in only 3 to 8 feet of water.
Bass opener was great for folks. Sally Jigs are doing a great job for bass lovers.
For the latest, give us a call at 218-495-2895. Ken's Tackle is open our summer hours and ready to see your smiling face!

Shiners are Still the Bait of Choice!

Fishing on Otter Tail Lake continues to be a trip! Depths range from 5 to 20 feet on shoreline breaks. Some fish are being caught on sunken island and mid-lake structures.
Shiners are still bait of choice tipping jigs or Lindy rigging.
Tournament this past weekend was won by team of Nelson/Schonawer from Fergus Falls. Great job! 12 fish weighing in at 34.47 pounds. Beautiful catch using Ken's Tackle shiners! Over 1200 pounds of fish were reported in during the two day tournament. All were released with 96% survival rate.
Panfish bite has also been excellent on area lakes.
Come in to Ken's Tackle for the latest advice and proven bait!

Best Opener Ever! Otter Tail Lake Was Steller!

Gary Peterson

Otter Tail Lake had one of the best fishing openers that we can remember. Nice walleyes were being caught, weather was great and because of this - you witnessed a lot of generations out fishing together. Great stuff!
Presentation that is working today is Jigs and tipped with shiners. Lindy Rigs with shiners are also working well.
You'll find the walleyes on Otter Tail Lake in 5 to 15 feet of water. Water temp on Otter Tail Lake is 58 degrees - so it's great for this time of year!
We are starting off the year with nice looking fish to boot.
Ken's Tackle is excited about the upcoming Real Country 102 Fishing Tournament Friday and Saturday. There are still openings - so come and participate or watch each evening when they come in. Great entertainment in our lake country.

Ken's Tackle is looking forward to a GREAT opener!
It's only days away and it's a great feeling when the fishing excitement is BACK!
Water temp as of May 6th is 50 degrees. Walleyes should be in that 5 to 20 foot range with minnows being the best choice.
Crawlers and leeches will work good as the temperature rises and we will have a full line of bait and tackle waiting for you!
Ken's Tackle will be open 24 hours on Friday thru Saturday for the "national" holiday! We'll have the lights on and coffee ready - no matter where you come from! Ready to serve you.
See you in a few days and yes - we have Fishing on the Brain!

  • With the weather as it's been - it's been great to be out fishing. It's sunny, temp is fantastic and the fishing is good to boot.
Perch and walleyes are being caught on Otter Tail Lake in the 13 to 30 feet of water.
Crappies and sunfish are improving on area lakes in the 15 to 25 feet of water.
Remember walleye, northern and bass seasons close Sunday February 26th at midnight. Permanent fish houses need to be off the lakes March 5th.
Note: Minnesota fishing opener is May 12th. Coming fast!
Stop in Ken's Tackle to get the latest. We also have some winter tackle sales going on!

Fishermen continue to come into Ken's Tackle with smiles on their faces. We've been lucky to put folks on fish this year and here's the latest details:

Walleyes are found by shoreline breakers / edge of the weeds in 14 to 20 feet of water. You'll also find your fish around Grandpa's Island and many point flat areas.

Perch are on the flats in 10 to 12 feet of water.

Or you could go over to West Battle Lake these days. The bite is improving and you'll get some nice panfish in 18 to 25 feet of water.

Give us a call at the shop for the latest! Becareful and most of all - make memories in the Otter Tail Lake area!
