If this happens, I wouldn't mind to climb in with someone and give it a shot. A couple years ago there was a get together in April and I was in Lota lota's boat. We come out of the WI entry with 5 to 6 footers rolling in from the East. I believe Scott called it green water? I don't know about that, but I was very much on the nervous side to say the least. Lota made the call to head in and we went up to Two Harbors and trolled around the harbor and I put a coho in the box. Still a neat experience, minus those big waves.

Copman, Welcome to the site, FM Get Together is where we all here get together for a day now and then and share in a day of fishing on the same water. We always grill after fishing and meet knew names and faces it is a lot of fun. Some of us here have made new best friends and fishing buddies smile.gif.

I agree, get togethers are always a lot of fun. Hopefully if we get a big lake get together planned, the weather and the bite cooperates a little better than the previous two years!

Well it looks like we all would like to go so I hope some one would pick the day shocked.gif. I can say any weekend for me would work fuel lines need to get done yet on my boat so I could jump in with some one if you need help one the big lake or if some one has room. So on that note let's set the date smile.gif.

Skipper's Kid,

Assuming the date works out, and you know the lake and the secrets to catching them you can jump in with me - I need to learn more about this big lake fishing. Although I did boat my first coho sunday morning! I'll be taking off from the bay down parkpoint.

Do we want to avoid the Marathon weekend, which is June 16 or maybe it does not matter????

23rd or 30th. Well, 30th is a moving day for me into my new place (and probably other college kids as leases start around that time)....

I vote 23rd.

Tom - you think its a Meat - Spoon - or top-water time around that date?

More than likely it will be a spoon bite and it wont be top water unless something drastically changes. But that all depends on what the fish want and weather leading up to that point that determine the favorite baits. I might be able to make it this year! Standing by to see the date.

I say this Sunday while my bite is still hot. LOL.

I dont care when it is guys.

Ok Ill set a date then. SUNDAY June 17th. Ok there it is.

Hopefully some guys can make it for this one.

The bite is going good out on the cheesey side lately. I got around 12 fish today out by myself. The walleye bite on the river is getting frustrating so I hit the lake. It was flat as can be til about 1pm when I headed in.

Some eyes, 4 lakers, a couple kings and a couple ho ho's. Lots of fun for goin it alone.

Good to see you back lil perch.

Sunday the 17th works for me. Now pick a free and friendly landing. The action should still be on this end and Rice's Point or Park Point would work. If theings move up the shore then the McQuad access.

Bring grillables and a side dish.

      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
