What places are the best for going out with my own sleeper. Hope to go to LOW ans Red several times this winter. Have not always felt welome at LOW with the sleeper. Also what access fees do they charge.

Thanks for any info.

I brought my sleeper out of Adrians. They had no problem with me using their road. They might want a season pss out of you. If the price is reasonable I think they deserve it. It's when they get out of line that gets me mad. It was two years ago and I think they got 10 bucks from me for the weekend. It probably has gone up by now. Good Luck

P.s. Also Morris point is an option, I did really well in early ice 22 ft last year.

Hey der minndonn, most charge 5 bucks a day to access, or that's what it has been for a while now anyhow. As for best place, iffin your talking best fishing/catching that would change loctaion-wise thru the ice season.

Curious when you say 'not always felt welcome'? Hit them with their fee and it should be all good? We love tourists up this way! Some operators that run off of Adrian's road may get a bit touchy with the trails they plow off of main track to their set-ups, but it is public on the ice. Just don't set up on a trail eh!!!

Morris point resort would be a really good spot to consider early season, last year 'twas 5 bucks a day, week long road pass for 30. Speak with Al maybe if you wanna get off the main road a bit, I'm sure he'd work something out and good ol jason could plow you a trail maybe. Good folks there.

I'm gonna bump up a retro FM piece I did here a few years back with some "Things to do on the big pond", take a peek a that post for a bit more to stew.

Enjoy the winter season, happy holidays.

      thats great to hear regarding the lake levels!!!!!!

      On an off light precipitation today. Hoping the weather this weekend will be nice so I can get out and crappie fish and check the weather. My yard has standing water and the driveway is a mess. Lot of lakes are near standard water levels which is good. Heard they are done stripping eggs on cut foot. Shaping up to be a good opener. Last year fished open water 60+ days and 28 different lakes. Hopefully bump both those numbers up this year

      I don't think its 100% accurate, you are just relying on other average joes to report precipitation. But I think most numbers there are right in the ball park, especially when you see consistency among multiple reports in a general area.   It's probably more accurate than what the weather terrorists say on the news  which usually only reports metro areas. cocorahs is good for getting rural area reports you just might not have as many reports to go off of

      Thanks Mike.  I've been looking at bags of it for years but never wanted to chance wasting good meat on it.  I have a gas and charcoal grills, but really love the flavor of charcoal over gas. Most of the time it's if we have time to use one or the other.

      On the south end...   The big open water, otherwise known as Big Traverse Bay, is ice free.  The bays and tributaries of LOW such as Zippel Bay, Bostic Bay and Four Mile Bay are ice free as well.  The lake is in good shape for the MN Fishing Opener on May 11th. The many bays and backwaters of the lake have been receiving attention from spring pike anglers.  Some pike have already entered the bays, spawned and gone back out to the lake, but there are still a pile of fish to be had.   The pike season on LOW is open year round. The limit is 3 pike per day with one fish allowed more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. On the Rainy River...  Another great week sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River.  The bite has been very good and lots of fish of all sizes are being boated.     Sturgeon are being caught from Four Mile Bay at the mouth of the Rainy River all the way to Birchdale, about 42 miles.  There are many boat ramps along the river to make life easy.  Starting from the east going west...   -Nelson Park at Birchdale (About 30 miles east of Baudette) -Frontier (9 miles west of Birchdale) -Vidas (Near Clementson Rapids) -Timbermill Park (East Baudette) -Peace Park (International Drive, Baudette) -Wheeler's Point (mouth of Rainy River)  The sturgeon season continues through May 15th and resumes again July 1st.   Oct 1 - April 23, Catch and Release April 24 - May 7, Harvest Season May 8 - May 15, Catch and Release May 16 - June 30, Sturgeon Fishing Closed July 1 - Sep 30, Harvest Season If you fish during the sturgeon harvest season and you want to keep a sturgeon, you must purchase a sturgeon tag for $5 prior to fishing.    One sturgeon per calendar year (45 - 50" inclusive, or over 75"). Up at the NW Angle...  The Angle is ice free.  Resorts are gearing up for the fishing opener which is expected to be excellent.  The late ice bite was very good and the walleyes are in good numbers amongst the islands area of the NW Angle.

      Charcoal Briquettes are great for low and slow cooking as they produce long-lasting heat. Lump Charcoal burns hotter and adds more flavour to your food; therefore is great for hot and fast cooking.
