Title: Headed to Okoboji this weekend (2-8). Any suggestions?
Post by: Ihawkangler on Feb 07, 2019, 04:58 AM

Haven't been to Okoboji for 3 years but headed up this weekend with some friends.  Will be staying near Arnold's Park.  Anyone have some suggestions on parts of the lake to hit and species to target?  I called Stan's and they said it has been pretty slow.   Appreciate any suggestions.

Drive straight off Minnewaukon ,go deep, and look for perch. Sorting required. Drive on Smith’s Bay, go a little right, and look for yellow bass.
