What Siseebakwet Lake is stocked with

Siseebakwet Lake is a large lake in Itasca County, Minnesota, covering about 1,205 acres with roughly 5.6 miles of shoreline on the USGS map. Minnesota DNR records show walleye released here. They went in as fingerlings, which are stocked to grow into the fishery over later seasons rather than to be caught right away.

Walleye usually bite best in low light; a jig tipped with a minnow, a leech or a crawler harness is the standard approach. On a water this size, points, drop-offs and weed edges are good places to start.

Other waters close by on our map include Tioga Mine Pit and Jay Gould Lake. Seasons, size limits and bag limits come from Minnesota DNR, so read their current rules before you keep fish. Tap Watch for stocking to get an email when new records appear.
