Northern run rookie

[Dahitman44]

Never tried that and it sounds like fun. Thinking about sneaking up there -- any idea how, when where what?

Any information would be nice.

Kinda looking forward to trying it.

How?.....Tip-ups thru the ice, long rods once the lake/bays open.

When?....Now and into the first part of May.

Where?...All the tribs and larger dithes/creeks that flow into the pond see a run. The S shore of Muskeg bay, Zipple Bay, Bostic and 4mile bays all have good fishing/catching potential.

How?....Big baitfish of one type or another be it a live Minnow or a dead fish rigged on a Quick-strike rig.

Hittman, try carlson ditch, swiftditch, or right at the mouth of the warroad river. 6 feet - 12feet of water is a good start, and everything fiskynut said.

Thanks a lot.

Some say smelt is good -- is it?

Hit, where are you planning on going?? I'm heading out next weekend to try for some pike out of Warroad, I usually head out a little deeper than everyone else and I do pretty good. I'll let you know how we do. We usually use big suckers and set some dead bait, usually smelt. Suckers always worked better for me.

smelt has always caught me bigger fish.
