Just wondering if anybody has been out in the area? Anything biting, not looking for spots or anything.

Fished Alex last weekend, mostly for bass, did ok. Lots of people fishing crappies, seen a few caught. Tried muskies for about an hour, nothing.

My 2-1/2 year old takes priority and he's a HANDFULL so I spent most of my weekend making sure he didn't drown. grin

Didn't get a lot of fishing in but my 5 year old and I did find a few nice panfish up shallow at a few different points around Fishtrap.

The conditions are pretty much what they are on most fishing openers. Water in the mid 50s for temps - did not find a spot over 57 deg, even in the dark-bottomed shallows. Weeds/lilys barely starting to emerge. I think the best fishing is right around the corner.

My wife is letting me go up next weekend by myself for kind of a fathers day present, can't wait, hopefully the weather improves a bit.

Thanks for the report Thunder, I think I might try and make it out on Thursday this week.

Yeah- thanks thunder- I have a 5yo, 3yo, and 1yo. Fishing time is precious, hoping the 5yo is into it this year. Sunnies and crappies would probably keep him interested.

      Water Temps 48-52. I tried for crappies and caught two walleye. I can't even crappie fish. 1/32 ounce jig and a tiny minnow

      Looks like you could use a FM hat. 😉    The future son in law prefers the lump coal.  He’ll start it in coal starter over a propane burner, then dump in it his smoker grill as needed.   Congrats on the clean break “over there”.

      Should really start a What yeah Smoking thread!    Another fun place we tried when up in Duluth. OMC stands for "Oink, Moo, Cluck" They serve pork cracklins for starter to test their sauces on.

      On the east side of St. Boni. It's not too far from me. A friend lives in St Boni and loves the place. I haven't tried it yet.

      First time ever going there with the wife. Little spendy but they make some darn good piles of meat! We had the brisket! 😋

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!
