That little hump on the east/northeast corner of Stella. I never see anyone but myself ice fish that hump. Anyone been on that one yet? In years past we used to get 1 or 2 off that hump. We used to drive onto the lake from that same east shoreline. I don't know if the local shoreline owners let you do that anymore?

Man-O-Man you boys in the Hutch area are tight lipped. Hundreds of Views but a minimum of posts. Its like sharing info with a mute. You get nothing back. I would suppose though that those reasonable fishing areas I posted in the recent past on Manuella and Stella will have you "rurals" all over them. Its too bad I can say you can't fish those spots just like you tell me when I ask to pheasant hunt your CRP land. LOL

Well, there were only 46 views at this point, but I guess nobody is talkative about Stella right now. Seems to always be a lake that isn't really popular compared to the others in the area....and nothing is wrong with that either! Sometimes it's nice to not have the crowds.

If the hump is the same one I'm thinking of, I got a nice smallmouth off of it this summer and another over on the fingers. I was fishing for walleye but they liked the crawler and I can't complain since they are always a blast to hook onto.

Thanks for your comments in the Hutch forum!

hasn't seemed like there has been as many out on Stella this year, did get small walleyes off the north walk on access but all small. Have been fishing other lakes recently. Stella is still one of my favorite lakes to fish summer or winter

I was going to say something about the CRP comment but that's a whole different subject. That said, this forum has been tight lipped ever since I joined up. That's just the way it is.

I used to live in Hutch and moved out a few years ago. There are some great lakes to fish but the pressure is unbelivable!! Locals blame the city folks and city folks blame the locals. It's hard to keep a spot to your self in that area. I don't blame anyone for being tight lipped, over the years I've seen too many of those small lakes get raped by the crowds.

I still enjoy fishing these lake once and a while, but you have to know what your doing. I will say this, If you can catch fish consistantly on Hutch area lakes you will be successful anywhere you go!!!

CRP is a whole nother can of worms, don't open it!!!

That's funny right there. Next time my buddies call me "city boy" (I just moved to Minnetonka from Cokato), that quote will be commin out.

      Hey government,  Just give us choices. I don’t care what people use as long as as it works for you. I’m needing a new weed eater. Plan on a Stihl FS 40 easy start. I’m done with the cheaper brands. Just don’t last long enough.  Probably true with the Stormy Daniels of the world as well. Cheaper don’t last long enough 🤭

      If you turn on a movie they survive the 20min ride just fine. After many controlled experiments, I've found that they survive much better if you show "Finding Nemo" instead of "Jaws."

      Quick update: Lucky 7 now has rainbows, fatheads, crappie and light pike in stock. If I remember correctly, scoop of rainbows was $8.99.  Stopped at L&M in Virginia. Rainbows $6.99, fatheads and crappie minnows (scoop) $3.99. I was billed $6.99 dozen for rainbows, but was given a healthy scoop!

      I have had the same old Strikemaster augers for years, take care of them and they will last a long time.   I think E-augers are nice for around home lakes or at the cabin. The thing that was a eye opener to me was being in D-Rock in New Brighton getting new blades and there were two guys that just got back from a week in Canada on a big ice fishing trip and both very pissed off at their e-augers dying! They were both buying new gas augers.

      MN Fishing Opener Looking Good

      By LakeofthewoodsMN · Posted

      On the south end...   Things are shaping up nicely for the MN Fishing Opener which takes place Saturday, May 11th.  Recent rain has brought up the water levels, which were low.  The walleyes and saugers are in very good shape across the south shore.  Expectations are high. The goto presentation this weekend will be a jig and frozen emerald shiner or other kind of minnow.  Emerald shiners are a staple in LOW and walleyes love them.     Hook the shiner through the mouth and out the gill.  Push the minnow all the way up to the jig head and hook the minnow as far back as possible.  This will give you a better hooking percentage.     Jig sizes and colors?  This is stained water so you can get away with a big heavier jig, which is nice for those who don't fish a lot.  It enables them to have more control and feel the bottom.  A quarter ounce jig is a good size for starters.     In stained water, gold, glow white, glow red, pink, orange and chartreuse, or a combo of those colors, are great places to start.   The limit of walleyes and saugers is a combined limit of six fish, up to four of the six can be walleyes.  All walleyes between 19.5 - 28.0 inches must be released.  One fish over 28.0 inches can be kept.  The possession limit in MN is one daily limit of fish. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, there will be some good pike caught this weekend.  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...  Sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River has been excellent.  The catch and release season is May 8 - 15.  The keep season starts up again July 1st. FYI, there will be some nice walleyes in the Rainy River for the fishing opener.  Lots of sturgeon anglers are reporting big walleyes being caught on sturgeon rigs! Up at the NW Angle...  Angle resorts are ready to roll for the opener.  As many of you know, this is the area of LOW where the islands begin.  Lots of structure.     Go to spots for walleyes, neck down areas, shoreline breaks, points and bays which will have warmer water.  In true NW Angle form, be ready for a mixed bag of fish.  In addition to walleyes and saugers, pike, jumbo perch, crappies, and even a few smallies and muskies will be caught.   Again, the goto presentation will be a jig and minnow. Slow trolling a crankbait will also produce fish if need be.
