I've got a pass from the wife to go out on Sunday morning. I had someone heading out but had to cancel because he had a baby and has family coming to town. I'm looking for someone to head out. We can either use my boat or yours. Doesn't matter either way to me, just haven't fished in a couple of weeks.

I like to head out around 6 AM when the gates at the Bluffs opens. But I'm open to anytime.

"O pick me" pick me! Just kidding, hopefully I'll see you out there looks like I may be flying solo both mornings, sunday morning is still up in the air because I will be going to a game dinner at assembly church in Willmar saturday night, Steve Chapman is the speaker and I havn't see him since we were bow hunting together in Ohio, I plan on driving back that night so I can be on the river by 6am sunday.

Dude, you are hardcore! Hope the drive is safe, the message beneficial and that you arrive safe between your destinations! Stay safe and, no swimming in the Croix after August! Those are the rules going foreward! grin.gif

I am going out Sunday, most likely alone, could use another hand, makes launching the boat that much easier. If my fishing partner does make it, he is blind, so I still have to do all of the work myself. I live in Andover, and my ? partner lives in Richfield, so most of the metro is open for pick up. I have a bucket of fat heads and a bucket of red tails. I will be launching out of the bluffs, probably about 6:30-7:00 am. My boat is big enough to fish 3 out of. This is kinda funny, I was thinking that I should post about my open seat for Sunday..........Creepy grin.gif

Let me know.

Great to see you guys all getting your ducks lined up. Maybe we should get an open seats pinned to the top like the Metro Lakes Forum? Not much season left this year, might be nice for next year. I know I often have an open seat. LB

sparkyaber, thanks for picking me up and having me fish with you. Was a good time and that boat is quite a ride. We didn't get anything, but it was a good time. I like to meet new folks off of here. Hope to do it again sometime.

It was almost a great time (at least one fish would be a step in that direction) grin.gif It was great to meet you, sorry my boat is cursed. I think I will try it again on Friday, and maybe Sunday, weather permiting.

Get a hold of me if you want and are heading out Sunday. I think I would be able to go Saturday, but Sunday would be some convincing to the wife.

      Nope not me.  May want to go nextdoor and ask around?

      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
