Fall on Rainy Lake is some of the best fishing of the year. Look for wind blown points, shorelines, and shallow humps. If you have side imaging you can see the fish, they will look like grains of rice on the screen. Cast the points, shorelines and shallow humps, very your retrieve. Look for areas will more of a sharp break, the bait fish will hold on that break as the wind pushes then to shore and the fish have a better ambush area. I like to use the XT mono it has more abrasion resistance, check your line often for nicks in the line and knot. Good Luck!

Fall is some of the best time of the year for Smallmouth Bass ON Rainy Lake. Use your electronics to locate mid lake humps, look for ones with bigger the boulders the better. Vertical Jig the Rippin Raps over the top of the hump. I like to use fireline and tie it directly to the mono but you can use a small barrel swivel to connect them, or use only mono. Check the last couple feet of your line often for nicks and abrasions . Good Luck!

Fall is one of the best times for Crappie, use your electronics to locate a 30’ deep soft bottom basin. Drop to the bottom, bang thr Jigging Rap a few times on the bottom to attract attention and reel up just above the fish and start working you jigging rap slowly. Watch how they react to your bait, you should be able to watch on your normal 2D sonar or down imaging. You may want to tip the treble hook with a minnow head. If they don’t hit right away try playing keep away by raising your bait and trying to make them follow you. I like to use fireline with a short piece of mono with a swivel or tie the mono directly to the braid. Good Luck!
