As of November 3, 2024, here’s a detailed fishing report for Lake Winnebago, Wisconsin.

### Weather and Conditions
The weather around Lake Winnebago is generally clear with mild temperatures. In the Fox Valley area, cities like Oshkosh and Fond du Lac are experiencing clear skies with temperatures in the mid-50s and light winds ranging from 6 to 12 mph out of the southwest.

### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at around 6:30 AM, and sunset will be approximately at 4:30 PM.

### Fish Activity
Despite the cooler weather, fish activity remains robust. Anglers are reporting good catches of walleye, perch, bluegill, crappie, and white bass. The recent fish report indicates that walleyes are active, particularly in areas with structure such as reefs and mud flats.

### Fish Caught
Yesterday, anglers caught a significant number of walleyes, with many reporting success using various tactics. Perch and bluegill are also plentiful, especially in the shallower areas and near weed edges. Crappie and white bass are being caught in the deeper mid-lake flats and in the rivers.

### Best Lures and Bait
For walleyes, trolling classic crawler harnesses on calmer days has been effective. On windy days, trolling crankbaits like Flicker Shads, Shad Raps, and Northland Rumble Shads in colors such as pink, perch, and white are recommended. For casting, pitching jigs with a 2-inch tube style ned trailer in chartreuse and purple, or using shallow running jerk baits in purple and white, have been successful. Swim baits with a gold blade are also effective, especially on windy days.

### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots is the main lake reefs, particularly on windy days when walleyes move up onto these shallow areas. Another good spot is the weed edges and the rivers, where casting jigs and using jerk baits can yield good results. The mud flats and deeper mid-lake areas are also productive for trolling.

### Additional Tips
When fishing on Lake Winnebago, keep in mind that the winds on the open water can be stronger than forecasted, so be prepared for changing conditions. Targeting areas with structure like rock piles and rubble near shore can also increase your chances of catching fish.

Overall, Lake Winnebago is offering some excellent fishing opportunities right now, so grab your gear and get out on the water.
