A.J.'s Fishing Report

May 20, 2022   

Fishing has been slow on Lake Winnipesuakee due to the weather...wind has stirred up the water temps and we lost 10 degrees.  The upcoming hot weekend should help a bit and we will be back at it on Sunday.  We are fishing over 30' FOW and the fish are being caught from 15' down to the top (3 colors on Lead Core).  

Hot Colors:

Top Gun & 61 Gun:

• LCI Special
• Wonderbread
• Mickey Finn

Streamer Flies:

• Firesmelt Single
• Orange Grey Ghost Tandem
• Blood-N-Guts

AND NIGHT CRAWLERS ON A.J.'S CUSTOM WORM RIGS!

Shore fishing on Lake Winni is good, fish from shore at the Weirs Channel in Laconia, Long Island Bridge in Moultonborough, Governors Island Bridge in Gilford, Smith River inlet at Wolfeboro Bay, and Meredith and Center Harbor town docks.  At these locations, everything from smelt, shiners and worms under a slip bobber to small jigs will take salmon, as well as Rainbow Trout.

The Newfound River in Bristol offers great fly-fishing-only water that can often produce drop-down rainbows and salmon.  Additionally, several popular Winnipesaukee shore fishing locations exist at the Merrymeeting River (fly-fishing-only, barbless, catch and release), and the mouth of the Merrymeeting River as it enters Alton Bay, downstream of the famous stone arch bridge.
