Hi guys,

 

I'm planning a trip up to the Leech Lake area for a weekend of bass fishing.  Was wondering if anyone can recommend some smaller lakes that are good for bass in case my small boat can't handle the waves/storm on Leech Lake.  I will be staying in Walker and don't mind driving around the area.

 

Thanks!

When I lived up in Bemidji - Wolf and Andrusia, just east of Bemidji, were pretty good for bass. Irving, which is connected to Bemidji by a short, navigable channel, was also fairly good.

Jason Mitchell Outdoors has a couple episodes of him bass fishing small lakes in Walker area on youtube. He doesn't give specific names of lakes but gives great info.  I think most of the small lakes in the area will have bass.

Thanks. I was watching his videos the other day.  I have the worse luck picking lakes so was hoping to get a more narrowed list of small lakes sheltered from the winds.
