Fresno is 25% full inflow 85 cfs and outflow 40 cfs. Walleye fishing this week has been poor. Check conditions for ice over before pulling a boat to Fresno for fishing.

Nelson is 82% full with 0 inflow and outflow. Surface temp early this week was 39 degrees. All species fishing has been good. I have been fishing in about 20’ around the humps and points. I’ve been using jigging raps having good success on walleye, northern and perch. Search for fish using your sonars. Check conditions for ice coverage before heading out.

Good fishing.
