Yah the lake is going to be nothing but politics what a bunch of B S Dnr should give the lake to the tribe how many of the die that you are catching and releasing.
I like the concept of catch and release, especially the big brood stock. But, I will not waste time on a body of water that does not allow you to keep a few for the pan --- that is part of the over all experience.
Here are some tips for handling and releasing fish: Use wet hands: Wetting your hands helps keep the fish's slime coat intact and prevents bacteria growth. Handle gently: Avoid squeezing the fish, touching its eyes, or putting your fingers in its gills. Keep the fish in the water: The longer a fish is out of the water, the lower its chance of survival. Release headfirst: When you do need to handle the fish, release it gently and headfirst. Use a release tool: Use a dehooker, recompression tool, or rubberized landing net to minimize handling. Support the fish's weight: Support the fish's weight along the length of its body. Avoid hanging the fish: Never suspend the fish by its mouth or lip. Resuscitate a sluggish fish: Face the fish into the current until it regains strength.
The first time I ever fished Mille lacs open water, I boated 63 walleye in 3 hours. That was back in 2020. I fish it a dozen or so times a year now and the fishing is just phenomenal all the time... Your buddies must be doing something wrong.
Sounds like you may need to reevaluate your friendships lol it’s common knowledge at this point the bite is 🔥 and has been since beginning of last winter.

But you can't keep any. Major bummer! I'll go to Winnie. Just got back from there. Fishing was great and we ate fish every night.
What kind of a release was that?
Catch and release until August, can only take one after August.

Still the “skinny walleyes” can always tell a Mille lacs walleye by how skinny they are.
been up there a lot since opener and yes its incredible fishing right now, both smallmouth and walleye
I would love to see a walleye fishing video that doesn't make me feel like I need $100k of fishing boats and electronics to catch a walleye.
I've got a $10k boat and catch walleyes. Just have to put in the time and get out on the water. 🤘
Facts it actually ruins it
Use a kayak out on mille lacs
Anyone who believes they need a $100,000 boat to catch walleyes is a fool.
@@common-sense-is-dead can you read Or are you just stupid? No one said that. I said that they make me FEEL that way not that I believe that

Crushing eyes on a jig worm? Nice!
Kid cringe
I feel like I hear this every year and my actual friends that I trust fish Mille lacs hard and say it’s horrible.
We’re about 35 fish in already today and it’s just past lunchtime. Your buddies need to dial in their strategy a little bit!

If your friends can’t catch walleyes on Mille lacs they must not be very smart
