:Just got back from Newel. Fishing was slow today, we were the only boat out it was also windy with 3 to 4 ft swells but we did manage to catch 6 walleye, we kept 4 that we tagged, all were around the 55 cm mark with one 58cm. the fishing was slow all day, We fished for pike early afternoon and and only caught 1 , 65 cm. When we left the lake at 4pm the netters were just pulling in to start there netting slaughter!!!!, We were told by a fella on shore that they were going to allow 90,000 lbs of fish to be netted out of Newel this fall and winter,dont know if this is true or not, but I hope not.. NO wonder we can't catch any fish. Anyways we fished north of Kinbrook boat launch by the Island 20-30 ft of water, When I cleaned the fish tonight they were loaded with tiny perch they they were feeding on, anyways
good luck and watch the wind,
