Fall on Rainy Lake is some of the best fishing of the year. Look for wind blown points, shorelines, and shallow humps. If you have side imaging you can see the fish, they will look like grains of rice on the screen. Cast the points, shorelines and shallow humps, very your retrieve. Look for areas will more of a sharp break, the bait fish will hold on that break as the wind pushes then to shore and the fish have a better ambush area. I like to use the XT mono it has more abrasion resistance, check your line often for nicks in the line and knot. Good Luck!

Look for shorelines with a gradual break with a mix of large, small rocks, and sand. Put your trolling motor down and start working the shoreline. Late May through Mid June is best each year is different. The Smallys will be laying in the rocks and on there beds on the shoreline. Vary your retrieve speed and side to side. I like mono for the stretch when the fish hits so they don’t pull out of the hooks, check the last few feet of your line often for nicks. Watch for large rocks, they like to hide in and around them! Have Fun and Good Luck!
