What has everyone been seeing as an average for water temps. I've been to two different lakes and the warmest I've seen it is 49. But on average it's been 45-46.

I was on Swede Grove last night and average temp was 51.4 but I did see 52.2 in a few places.

Silver in Hawley had 49 degrees on opener.

Pelican was 47.5 on opener.

How was the bite on Swede Grove?

Slow for us. My son and I went for about 4 hours. Marked lots of fish and pulled cranks, drifted Lindys, and slip bobbed shiners off a point. Only one bite and that was on a lindy with gumdrop floater/leech. Most fish we marked were in 13 fow and a lot of suspended fish from 7-10 feet down. A guy pulling cranks along the same shore lost one at the boat. I talked with 2 guys at the launch that had caught 4 eyes on slip bobbers tight to the reeds in the "middle" section and they had fatheads in the bucket.

51 on Walker on the opener.

It was 39 where I was fishing on opener.

47.5 on Big Cormorant Friday am.

pelican friday was 47,. back in a bay it hit 50 ., walker lake this morning was 55

Is this surface temp or ?? what depth are we talking??

Last Monday Tulaby was 41.3*, South Twin 43*, Wednesday White Earth was 41*, Tulaby 44*. Very slow walleye bite, one 27 1/4", and 2 16" for both days.

Small lake i was fishing on saturday was 58 degrees when got off the water and it was 55 when we got on.

I fished a lake all weekend it was 55 on average and we had way better luck. a dozen walleyes, the biggest was a nice 26 incher. We also caught a lot of crappies.
