Pelican lake Ice reports??
leech~~ posted a topic in Brainerd, Aitkin, McGregor Area Fishing Reports - Hunting - Events
Anyone with a current ice-slush-pressure ridge report from Pelican Breezy Point area? Thanks. -
I just tore down a CS2250s chainsaw and when I was putting it back together I found a part on my bench that I don't know if it belongs to the saw or not. Does anyone know if this is a part that belongs on the saw? I looked over a parts diagram and didn't see it, but I don't want to try running it if it's an important part. It's a little bigger in diameter and thickness than a quarter. Thanks

Winter fishing on rainy
opsirc posted a topic in Crane-Kabetogama-Namakan-Rainy-Rainy River Fishing Reports
Have been fishing LOTW for many years now, but often wonder about fishing rainy lake. But there never seems to be any info on winter fishing. Is it because no one does it? Would be interested in knowing if there are plow roads out onto the lake, places to stay or any often info. Thanks. -
Moisture condensation in insulated Otter fish houses?
jim curlee posted a topic in Ice Fishing Minnesota
I have an old(purple) Otter Lodge. I'm thinkin about buying a new one with the insulated cover. Just wondering what your thoughts are on moisture condensation in the newer houses. Right now with the moderate temps, my old house is way wet on the inside. Thanks Jim -
Snow Reports
SkunkedAgain posted a topic in Vermilion-Pelican Lake-Chisholm-Cook-Ely-Eveleth-Hibbing-Orr-Virginia Fishing Reports - Hunting
When I was up two weeks ago, the lake snow was getting thin and was barely thick enough in the woods for snowmobiles. Have we added much snow lately? Any word on the trails? -

Let’s hear about your 2020 projects up at the lake. At my daughter’s request, I am going to rebuild the outhouse to “higher standards.” What do you plan to do? -
Marcum depth finder quit working.
hitthebricks posted a question in Equipment-Expert Information - MN
I have a Marcum LX5 that's been hardly used. I charged the battery then turned it on and let it run to check the battery life to see if I needed a new one. After a few hours it died. Tried to charge it again but no luck, bought a new one, hooked it up, nothing, checked the connections, nothing. Any ideas what's wrong? HTB -

Helix 7 cannot see lure or fish towards top of column.
Northerner28 posted a question in Equipment-Expert Information - MN
I have a Helix 7 CHIRP GPS G2N ice pack. I haven’t used it much. The trouble I have is that when I’m at a depth of 30ft I can see my lure fine towards the bottom. When I bring my lure towards the top my lure shows up lighter the closer I get to the surface. Even when I turn the gain all the way up I can’t see my lure at the top. I couldn’t even pick up a fish that was 6 feet under the ice. I also changed the cone settings and IR? settings and that didn’t have any effect. I am wondering if there is a setting I don’t know about that might change the ability to see something towards the surface. -
I think I know the answer, but . . . After running for about 3 hours the output on my flasher battery dropped from 12.5v to 10.1v. Pretty much means it's dead, correct?

So I just received my fathers ice shack he built more than 20 years ago. He never got to take it out because of life so it’s been sitting there since rotting away. I’m doing some TLC on it and want to get some wiring done before the inside is done. I’ll have a propane wall heater, that’s easy to do for me. But I don’t know much on how to configure a 12V system. I just want to add a couple lights inside and 3 or 4 outlets, possibly lights outside as well. Nothing crazy but I want to be able to build off of it in the later future. Please give me some criticism or whatever you please. Just want t

Hi Everyone, this is my first post here. I am looking for some tips or tricks to break down some of the water in the Northeast part of Vermilion for ice fishing opportunities. We will be up in that area for a week at the start of January and I have no idea how to know what the ice conditions typically are that time of year. We are debating on bringing snowmobiles or an ATV, but I'm not even sure what works better up there this time of year. For people who fish up in this area often: Do you seem to have better luck trying the big lakes, or breaking down smaller b

Garden Lake Resort - Ely
AnglerJake posted a topic in Vermilion-Pelican Lake-Chisholm-Cook-Ely-Eveleth-Hibbing-Orr-Virginia Fishing Reports - Hunting
Hello! My wife and I are thinking about a vacation to Ely, MN summer 2021. Has anyone stayed at this resort? Looks like a real nice place from their website. Not a real hard core fisherman, but would like to catch enough for a couple meals anyway. Anyone fished the Garden-White Iron-Farm chain in late June or early July? I would seriously consider a guide for a day. Any recommendations? Thanks, and have a Merry Christmas! Jake -
Have a very Merry Christmas my friends. I hope you all feel the love on this very special day! God bless.

anyone know if there is a big difference between these two? I understand that lawn/garden are pretty much lawnmower/ summer use, and power sport are for utv/atv/snowmobile/ winter use.

MinnKota Ulterra Auto Deploy Reliability
whateverisbiting posted a question in Equipment-Expert Information - MN
I hear the auto deploy feature can leave you stuck on a lake if it malfunctions but also heard they have gotten better recently. Anyone know how the reliability is looking for recent models, and if malfunctions can you manually bring it in? -
I looking at tip-ups for a Christmas gift but am not sure which way to go. Which do you prefer and why? I have never used one of the thermal type. I like being able to see if the spool is turning before I lift it out of the water. How much better are thermal tip-ups for keeping the hole from freezing? Do they really make that much difference?
