Fishing Report

November 18, 2008

Fall fishing has come and gone, the bite was pretty good. As the temperatures get colder, the activity gets less and less, but as I type this there is one diehard who has his both with them as they are here pheasant hunting. 

It has been a good spring, summer & fall for fishing with the sizes really getting bigger and limits more plentiful.  2009 should be another good year, the water levels are up and should continue to rise into next year. Vegetation and bait fish are more abundant and will make fishing that much better.  We look forward to seeing you in 2009.

Give us a call now and make plans to visit us next spring or summer.  

DO NOT FORGET THE BIGGEST ICE FISHING TOURNAMENT IN SOUTH DAKOTA COMING UP ON JANUARY 10TH. THIS YEAR THEY ARE GIVING AWAY 2 FOUR WHEELERS AND A 'ZACKSHACK' ICE SHACK, JUST FOR ENTERING. CHECK OUT WWW.MOBRIDGEOUTDOORS.COM FOR MORE INFORMATION. THIS IS A GREAT FUN TOURNAMENT TO BE PART OF. ALREADY 151 TEAMS AS OF TODAY.

The reservoir ( Lake Oahe ) is up over 25 feet from September of 2006, supplying great vegetation to the fishery. This has also put several boat ramps back into use that had been high and dry for several years.  

The fish are very healthy and the weight is up on the shorter fish. It has been an excellent year of fishing on Lake Oahe in 2008. 

Make your plans to venture out to Lake Oahe and Mobridge to use your skills to catch your stringer on mouth watering walleye. 

 

As the season progresses, check our web site or give us a call on our toll free number, 888-884-3641, and we will give you the current update. 

Walleye limits have changed this year to 4 per day of which one can be over 20" and 8 in possession.

Make plans now to head out to Lake Oahe at Mobridge and enjoy a great experience fishing.

Log on or give us a call on our toll free number as we will update this report with changing conditions throughout the winter.

You will have a great experience at the Wrangler Inn & Windjammer Sports Bar.

Wrangler Inn

Mobridge, located on the shores of Lake Oahe, is known as one of the top walleye fishing areas in the nation.  In addition, anglers will find trophy northern pike and an abundance of white bass, catfish and other game fish.

In the spring, Mobridge is the best location on the entire Oahe Reservoir for landing rainbow smelt during their annual spawning run.  Smelt fishermen come from all over the Upper Great Plains to haul in literally gallons of the tasty little fish.  The state has also added Chinook Salmon to Lake Oahe, and the Mobridge area is one of the hot spots during early fall spawning run.  Summer or Winter, fishing is fun in the Mobridge area because Lake Oahe provides room for you to fish miles from any other fishermen.
