Year after year our guests return for our fabulous Walleye fishing, which we believe, is second to none. Walleye are the dominant species in Five Mile Lake and are caught using a variety of methods such as, jigging with minnows or worms, trolling or drifting a spinner harness and casting or trolling a variety of Rapalas. Streams running in and out of our lake create perfect spawning grounds and the structure of the lake keeps the Walleye concentrated near recognizable landmarks like rocky points, shoals, river currents or along the pencil reeds and thick weed beds. Five Mile Lake is a rather shallow lake and many Walleye are caught in 7-10 feet of water in spring, early summer and fall. Mid to late summer brings the high sun and water temperatures moving the Walleye to deeper water.
Many people comment how wonderful the Walleye taste in our lakes. The meat cooks up nice and white and makes for a wonderful meal with some fried potatoes, beans or whatever your heart desires. The large number of Walleye is a benefit as the lake has a strong feeder base, which keeps our Walleye healthy.
