All panfish action, crappie, bluegill and perch, is moderately good. Panfish holding tight to cover for shade from midsummer heat, ranging from shallows to 15 feet. Both artificial and live bait working well, but fish changing feeding habits almost daily, depending on the time of day and the temperature. It looks as if there will be a very good acorn crop this year, so plan your scouting for the fall hunt accordingly. Please be careful with all types of outdoor burning and recreation.
Fishing is slow with warm lake temperatures and high levels of boat traffic.
A few yellow perch were caught from the pier at Bay Shore County Park. Smaller fish were caught near the Flats. A few yellow perch were caught in Little Sturgeon Bay in front of Goetz's Resort. A few lucky fishermen got their limit. Incidental catches of bullheads, rock bass, and 28-inch northern were part of the catches in Sawyer Harbor.
