Fishing Report
Friday, July 30th, 2010
We have spent a wonderful week among the helpful and happy people of Uchi Lake Resort. The fishing has been great, many, many walleyes and northern pike. Many days we caught 25 walleyes in less than tWO hours and then threw for northern pike until shore lunch. Lunch on the island prepared is to perfection! The biggest walleye this week was 25 inches and the biggest northern was 39. If you are considering a trip to Uchi Lake Lodge here is our advice, SET THE HOOK!!!

Just finished my ten day trip at UCHI. I was here as a single, however you are never alone. I met some fine folks from all over the U.S. There was Roger and Jim from New Mexico. Two great guys to fish with and two of the nicest lawyers you will ever met. The Missouri Boys who I showed a spot to fish, and they finished with a larger walleye then me. A special thanks to Dave Sorenson who showed me how to “correctly” fish in the weeds. And the camp and staff was superior as usual. The fishing was great too. I finished with 35 walleyes over 24 inches The largest walleye being 29 inches. I had three bonus pike (38,39 and 40 inch) as well. You will be hard pressed to find a better trophy walleye lake than UCHI. The fact that it is a catch and release, barb-less hook and a strict size limit make it a truly one of a kind lake.

The evening of June 28, 2010, starting at 7:30 P.M. until 9:25 P.M., I caught a 34″ Pike, a 25″ Walleye, a 27.5″ Walleye, a 28″ Walleye and a 29″ Walleye, all on an orange roadrunner jig and minnow. The fish were incredibly fat! UCHI Lake is the best walleye lake ever!

Fish this morning and was windy, caught 20 walleye, and hooked a 26 inch walleye. After a great shorelunch with potatoe salad, went down to the south end of Uchi to fish. Ran into Bill Duran a veteran of Uchi, asked how the fishing was going. He said help yourself and fish this spot as he had caught several large ones with jig and minnow - I landed 29 1/2 inch walleye.
This being the biggest walleye I’ve caught, then started to run out of minnows so put a white twister tail on, then the very next cast landed a 28 inch walleye in the same hole.
So within 5 minutes, we landed safely a 29 1/2 inch walleye and a 28 inch walleye.
What a day - great day.

The two of us have had another fantastic week here at Uchi. The fishing was absolutely excellent. Today alone, the two of us caught 85 walleyes in the morning and afternoon. Today they preferred floating jig heads of various colors in 5 to 8 feet of water. Wednesday, when the two of us caught 100 walleye, they preferred Husky Jerks in 4 to 6 feet of water. Part of the great fun in fishing Uchi, is the fact that many different modes of fishing are successful. When you come to Uchi, be sure to bring a variety of different walleye catching tackle with you, because many different methods are successful, which makes it even more fun. The staff at Uchi are extremely helpful and provide a very high level of customer service. Great job to Judy, Bertha, Brenda, Richard and Larry!

Can’t believe it is our last day! The days have gone so fast and have been so much fun. Yesterday was great fun. We had a storm right at lunch time so we had lunch at the lodge and by then it let up and we were back out fishing. We caught 85 walleye yesterday with about 35 over 18 inches. Can’t wait to see what today brings!

Sean and I had a great week here in Uchi.
Sean caught 37 and 38 inch northerns. We had twelve walleye over 22 inches including 3 26″, and a 25″. As always the staff was great. Bertha kept us well fed and despite my attempt not to overeat, I think I gained 5 pounds. Can’t wait to get back next year.
