Labs4me, Last year I was "Son of Slab" on the forum. You gave my son Max and I some good info to find fish. Although we tried to find you and Camp Jiggle last year my cell phone didn't work so we never hooked up. The reason for my post is; I see you live in I.G.H. I live on the border of I.G.H and Eagan. We are very close. Our good friend and fellow IBOT - SoHawk had a 35 Johnson Boat Motor for sale that I purchased. SoHawk will be up to the Lake this weekend and it sounds like he may run into you over the weekend. If it's not too much trouble and you have enough room in your truck of coarse I was wondering if you could drag it back to IGH and I'll pick it up from your place for a small fee of say: a "Case of Beer". If possible that would be great, if not, No Sweat, I'll meet him at his work in Park Rapids next week. Thanks Much and good luck this weekend. I have a Kelly P. sleeper for Jan. 14th and 15th plan on meeting as many IBOTS as possible at West Winds both nights. The Real "Son of Slab" Clamp and Dry Your Eyes! cool.gif

I might and might not be in on Saturday night. Friday I won't be for sure. My brother's coming in from the east coast to play Bemiji and I promised him I would watch his game. If they get smoked Friday grin.gifthen I will be fishing instead on Saturday and having cocktails at WW!

My nose,ears, and any other limbs I have are already having ghost pains for clampping!! shocked.gif

Mudman, Are you the guy I meet at Mini-Mite Hockey last winter or is Eagan loaded with people who are hooked on the Red Lake Crappies just like me. I remember someone posting last year that is just like me. We Don't mind driving six hours to get the prime time bite and turning around and driving home the same day because the wife has some sort of goofy plans. confused.gif Gotta Love Red Lake !!!! Hope to run into you on Sat. at W.W. "Son of Slab"

Nope wasn't me. I have lived in Eagan for my entire life. I am 27 now and got rid of the baggage (girlfriend) after she tried telling me I bow hunted to much this fall crazy.gif

I figure between work, icefishing and the late season pheasant this year I wouldn't have time for her tongue.gif

If you ever need a partner for local fishing fire me a message!

      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
