gsambray 172 Report post Posted July 2, 2013 Anyone fish yellowhammer lake? Going to be there from the 19th to 29th and was wondering how the fishing has been. It seems farely deep from shore and hoping to put my 16 foot boat in it. Also are there any rocks or reefs to watch out for? Its gonna bemy first time there in a boat and been told the walleye use to be good. Any info would be appreciated.ThanksGord. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pastor norm 125 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 yes.... big rock in the narrows.... be careful... the water is quite stained so it's hard to see, As for walleye, that would be news to me... but it's been 7-8 years Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsambray 172 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 What species are in there. I have caught pike from shore. Looking for decent wally fishing but tired of northern lights lol and whitefish too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naden 136 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 never heard of any walleyes coming from there. Bass and pike for sure and Ive heard there used to be the odd laker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naden 136 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 sprucefir has walleyes and it flows to yellowhammer so who knows maybe it does have walleyes and its just not well known. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsambray 172 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 Not sure if i can get a 16 footer in sprucefir. Maybe fish the river mouth on yh side. Just tired of bass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eyelander 164 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 walleye cannot get up river to yellowhammer from sprucefir, there is a steep drop at the yellowhammer end that prevents them from getting into it Quote Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pastor norm 125 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 yes.. some lakers...it used to be busy with tourists hammering the bass... you can't get into Spruce Fir with your boat because it requires a portage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
