When fishing Lake Of The Woods you hear it over and over. Use a gold colored jig. I decided to try the half ounce Z-Man BIG BLADE in Blue Gill color. The blade is gold. It was an overcast day and I added a green pumpkin paddle tail. This combination was creating a lot of noise in the water and the pike noticed. I caught several in the mid to upper 30's.

Post up on the Rainy and drop anchor (a chain above your anchor does wonders). On heavy gear, drop a 5/0 circle hook on a 12" heavy floro snell anchored down with a sinker slide and pyramid style weight. Gob that hook up with as many worms and frozen shiners as you can and hang on. Sturgeon are on the move -- headed to the main lake for summer. These pre-historic monsters forage by smell, your ball of bait will bring them in. They'll hit light, but once you set the hook on one of these dinosaurs --you'll fight for every inch of line. Practice CPR: bend back your hook barb for a quick release to keep the fish healthy. Bonus fish abound in the river this time of year, you'll be cursing that 30 inch walleye you reeled in that stole your ball of stank.
