KWO Report Presented by Rapala
Sunday, June 26, 2016 at 3:26PM 
Hello Everyone!
We are pleased to announce that Rapala is supporting the 2016 Kenora Walleye Open! All tournament anglers will receive Rapala branded goodies in their bags when they sign in at the rules meeting. Every bag will contain a spool of Sufix fishing line and a Rapala Crank Bait!
The weather has been pretty bad for the last couple days. Much of the area has received big rain fall and the lake is up about 6 inches over the last week.
The water temps have been dropping as a result and are down to 63 degrees today.
The mayfly hatch started a few days ago, that could help or hurt your catch depending on how your strategy is :)
The extended forecast looks good for the coming week, can't wait!
