2025 Fisheries Outlooks
The largest waterbody in South Dakota, Lake Oahe, often finds itself in the spotlight. The expansive reservoir, which stretches from Bismarck, North Dakota to Pierre, South Dakota, is one of the most dynamic fisheries in the country. While this “boom and bust” fishery has gone through many cycles, anglers should be hopeful 2025 is a year that features ample “boom!”
The spotlight is going to be on Lake Sharpe in 2025 and all signs point to the popular fishery being ready to have one of its best years in recent memory. Known for being a walleye factory, Lake Sharpe has produced an excellent supply of walleyes in recent years and is ready to meet the anglers’ demand for the coming season.
The 2025 Nebraska Fishing Forecast is available, and this is an excellent resource for anglers across the Cornhusker state. Daryl Bauer, Nebraska Game and Parks Commission fisheries outreach program manager, provides a write up on major species and all 2024 sampling charts are included. Our favorite fish, the walleye, is the species we’re going to highlight.
