I don't fish that series of lakes but I have also heard that the introduction of the catfish years ago has played a significant role in reducing the population of panfish, especially bluegills. I know bass anglers that fish out there regularly using artificial moving lures that still catch catfish. That tells me they are aggressive and hungry. I believe muskies were also introduced but muskies have not been proven to have a measurable impact on panfish populations, except for maybe perch. There's simply not enough of them and stomach content studies have shown they prefer a diet of suckers, ciscoes (when present), small pike, and perch. Would they eat a bluegill given the chance? Of course. But they do not seek them out as primary prey. Another likely factor is angler over harvest. Panfish populations get hammered almost year round now. -

looks like there will be a change in sunfish limits effective march 1. article in todays st cloud times said there looking to reduce the sunfish limit on 9 area lakes. those lakes happen to make up the horseshoe chain system. looks like the new limit will go from 20 to 10. now this is just my opinion but i didnt hear any issues with the panfish population until a few years after they introduced the catfish to that system. either way i'm ok with the change! -

Whoa, bringing this one back from the dead. I use Rockys. The specific model are Cornstalkers. They have 500 grams of insulation. I use mine as all-purpose boots, walking for pheasants/grouse and sitting for deer/turkeys. The first set I had lasted for about 10 years before they started to fall apart. I'm on my second pair now, year 3 coming up. I had a pair of Redhead Comfort Airs from Bass Pro for 2 seasons and they started to leak and my feet always got wet. Highly suggest avoiding the Redhead brand of boots. -

Well, just wrapped up my last day in Grand Marais. All the smaller, shallow lakes are locked up with ice, or will be after tonight. Lots of snow up the trail, but getting around on back roads wasn’t a problem. I stopped and fished most of the trout lakes around the gunflint and arrowhead trails...the ones that weren’t frozen over anyway. My dad didn’t see a single grouse...I saw one at the start of the arrowhead. I didn’t hear a single gunshot while I was out fishing. Saw 1 moose, 1 bear, a few deer, foxes were everywhere! And even saw a fisher run across the road. Saw just about every animal print you can think of in the snow. Still a few diving ducks around, snow buntings and crossbills everywhere. And finally seen a gray jay! Despite the cold and snow, it really wasn’t that bad out. Was a different perspective fishing all the lakes in waders, as opposed to being in a boat. -

A huge shout out to Borch who gave some really good pointers on running the raps in our lake. This fall my dad spent more days fishing from my boat and actually was begging me to go. Dont know if we will be able to do it again but made some really good memories.
