The Gap

[First Ice-Mike]

Going to be fishing LOW Friday-Sunday. Thinking about hitting the gap - Anyone been having any luck in that area. We're thinking the warmer weather could turn it into a hot spot.........<P>FI

You might want to check out the pines. If I would be fishing I might try the river come evening time. Check to see if alot of houses get set up on the river some where to the south of Ballards. I guess it wouldn't hurt to check out Four Mile either. Good luck

First Ice: I was on LOW out of Riverbend Houses on 2/27-3/1. We fished the Gap for three days in 22' of water. A lot of small fish, however we did manage to fill out on eyes. A 26" was released with the fish we kept going 16-19". We also iced a 41" gator. Several houses in the area were picking up decent fish but not in great numbers. I'm headed back next week 3/20, not sure if Riverbend will have more houses in the area or not. The best bite for the larger fish was between 530-700pm. Hope this helps you out. Good luck and hang on. Bill

Here's something to remember, check, think<BR>about....If you plan to ice fish on the river.<P>March 1 the 2 Walleye limit kicked in on the <BR>Rainey River. 2 fish NONE over 19 1/2 inches.<BR>This applies all the way up to where the<BR>river turns the corner at the end of Wheelers<BR>Point. At that point the River becomes 4 Mile Bay and the 14 fish limit applies.<P>Curt Quesnell

I just returned from a Red lake,LOW trip and the conditions over the weekend were down right cold.The cold I can handle,but the wind does it every time.Red Lake was unbelievable and LOW's was tough.Fished the Morris Gap and Pine Island area with little luck.Like the story has been all year,tons of little eyes.Also fished 16 mile Sat. with little success.Didn't fish their long the wind was pretty nasty.Hopefully have better luck with the warmer weather.Good fishin',Jigster
