About this time of year, the young loons on the calm morning water of the lake begin to become more apparent. Half feathered and not quite yet the sleek black-and-white of their parents, they flex their independence or congregate in hangouts in front of the dock which rival teenagers getting together on a Friday night.

The walleye fishing has been good on Devils Lake this past week!

From wind from the north, don't venture forth to ninety percent of the fish inhabit ten percent of the water, big and little lessons alike are summed up in quick catchphrases that are easy to remember and applicable in most angling scenarios. Of all of them, my favorite is: if you aren't snagging, you aren't bragging. Taking the idea that most fish relate well to structure and look for cover and food in some of the craggiest, woodie...
