~ GRAND RAPIDS AREA FISHING REPORT ~ LIVE Fishing Reports from the HLO Crew via Twitter Tweets by @HangLooseOD ( August 8, 2024 ) We hope you all had a great weekend! Fishing is great around the area right now. If you are looking for a meal of walleyes or a big fish to stretch the line, now is a great time to get out on the water. Water temps are in the mid 70's on most bodies of water so the bite should be good. Look for walleyes to be scattered in small schools in the weeds in 10-16 fow and out on mid lake structures in 20-30 feet. I know that seems like a far stretch, but this time of year there are two kinds of walleyes. These fish might want different baits too. Now is the time of year to bring a variety of bait to the lake. Leeches, crawlers, and big minnows should get something to bite. Reaction baits like the jiggin rap is also triggering walleyes to bite. Panfish are active during low light periods on the weed lines on many area lakes. A jig and twister tail is a good option to catching fish or trolling spinners tipped with minnows will also do the trick.
