not naming lakes anymore.


Recommended Posts

Since having a few folks from different sites wanting me to keep the smaller lakes from being overfished I'll be making all of my post with funny named lakes.

Should you want some inside info I can be emailed & I'll do what I can to help you.

[email protected]

I just want to be helpfull and maybe make a few fishing & hunting friends along the way.

Appearently I have been ruffing up some feathurs and that was never my intent.

So from now on you'll see me fishing Lard with is where the crisco river flows into.The bass have been busy eating the frys by the way.Then there will Happy go lucky which is right over by nofish lake.

The info will be real with only the names protected to serve

the lake home owners.

This message will not self destruct & that fat lady is dead.

Is Nofish lake named after me?

Hopefully no one goes looking for these lakes on the Lakefinder on the DNR website. It might start leading people astray.

Well, Im hoping that before I come up to that one lake up there in August, you might be able to help point me in the right direction for all them dogfish. You know, I don't want to name that lake, or that fish. This forum isn't about fish.

Thanks for the great help on the ATV's! cool.gif

Ck,

Should we just code all the lakes so that no one knows what we are talking about or maybe we should all just give up fishing? NOT

I'm just trying to appease everyone.I've got sponsers&potential sponser watching me.

If I continuelessly get into the type of banter that has been going on,well it's not good for me soooooo.

I do not know how else to make a post.

I'm fishing everyday or almost everyday.I'm trying to spread out to different lakes so as to be well rounded.

Keeping the fishes pulse is my main goal & to talk about that .Again if there are questions or whatever there's the email address.

I know some pros that stay away from forums because of the banter.That's to bad as we could really glean some good info.

Well there it is,I hope your fishing is going well.Mine sure as heck is.

The fish have moved deeper with the hot weather by the by.

Most fish are in 15-25 FOW.

The weed patches have developed so if there's a pattern you used to work on the outside edges,nows the time to hit them.

We have been on the bass and sunfish around here. The eye bit has been ok but I have done a lot better.

One of my freinds was up around your area on Saturday and his 8 year old son pulled up a 29".

that's so cool to hear Dale.A 29" eye would have put that eye in the 9 lb.range.

for a 8 year old ,that was a trophy to be sure.

I'm a bit far for you to go for bear. We do have a good amount in the area.

Last year during grouse season I found an area being worked hard by a big brusier.

I have a size 14 foot & I found a rear print that I could put my boot in.

I'm guessung it was over 400 lbs,maybe close to 500.

He had tag elders 6" in diameter snapped off from chewing on them & if I hunted them I know where I'd set up.

Fecal piles all over including on oak tree limbs where he must have been snoozing.The tree stumps were dug out 3 foot down and you could see he spent a bunch of time in that area.

Promise me you'll keep on keepin' on! Only about a zillion lakes out there, and they all are on the up and down cycles - hot or cold one year doesn't mean much for the next year anymore.

ONWARD!!

"One of my spies over in Palisade told me Rat Lake is doing good on sunfish. I gotta believe her" grin.gifgrin.gifgrin.gif

It's easy to name a lake with only 20 residents.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st

      As I get older it's really not just about sending bullets down range.  Some of it's just the workmanship of the gun and the wow factor. The other two guns I have really wanted which I'll never have now because of their price, is a 8mm Jap Nambu and 9mm German Luger.   Just thought they always looked cool!

      I had a guy hit me with a lightly used 1969 BAR, he wanted $1650 with an older Leupold scope. More than I think they are worth, I made an offer, he declined end of story.   You know if you look at the old brochures, a grade II BAR sold for $250 in the late 60s, $1650 would be a good return on your investment.    Why would anybody want a 50 year old gun, they are heavy, have wood stocks, and blued metal.  I guess mainly to keep their gun safes glued to the floor. lol   You can probably buy a stainless rifle that you never have to clean, with a synthetic stock you never have to refinish, is as light as a feather, and for half as much money, perfect.   I'm too old for a youth gun, although I've shrunk enough that it would probably fit. lol   No Ruger 10/44s.   Jim
