I have been in the tackle retail business since the age of 16 and have been fishing Lake Winnipesaukee since I was five years old. My passion for fishing and knowledge of the lake have been an essential part of operating the
business. Seasonally, we’re open 7 days a week and I can be found in the store 95% of the time.

A.J.'s Fishing Report
July 18, 2014
Summer is here and so is the HOT weather! As the water heats up the Salmon, Lakers & Rainbows are going deeper. They are being caught 35-40' down and 7-8 colors on LeadCore.
Hot colors that have been working:
TOP GUN & TOMMY GUN
and the NEW 61 Sutton by Moosalamoo
- Gold/Silver Taped
- Pumpkinhead
- Rangeley
- Creamsicle
FLIES:
- White Perch
- Golden Demon
- Maynard Marvels
- Pumpkinhead
Bass fishing has been good! They are starting to go deeper so try fishing the drop offs and marker buoys.
- Live Bait is working great (Worms, Hellgrammites & Crayfish)
- Gold Bomber
- Spinner Baits
- Rubber worms (Bitters & Yamamotos)
Night fishing has been hot for Bass with black Jitterbugs & Hula Poppers.
Open water fishing from shore, docks and bridges is good in places such as:
- Winnipesaukee River (flows from Weirs Channel to Paugus Bay and through Lakeport Dam/Opechee area)
- Winnipesaukee River (through Laconia to Dixon Point at Lake Winnisquam)
- Lochmere Dam at Silver Lake
- Open water at Lake Winnisquam (where the river drains into the lake)
- Long Island Bridge in Moultonboro
- Governors Island Bridge in Gilford
- Smith River inlet at Wolfeboro Bay
- The Meredith & Center Harbor Town docks
For the areas above use live Shiners or worms on slip bobbers or small jigs to catch the Salmon & Rainbows.
The Newfound River in Bristol is a great 'fly-fishing only' river that produces Rainbows & Salmon. Another popular 'fly-fishing only' area is the mouth of the Merrymeeting River as it enters into Alton Bay.
As always, send us your fish pics!
