yeah, sure... i guess you never know... that would be a safe guess, but who knows, maybe they are more active and want a fathead.... i don't know. I'd get a scoop of crappie minnows, and a half scoop of fatheads.... and then some glow jigs... and then i'd have to get propane, and then a bag of chips, and a soda or two... and you got 30 bucks lookin at ya, and a hope for a bunch of small crappies! Maybe I'll be there, look for a black 2 door ford exploder, and a blue fishtrap.

I was out on Bald last weekend and I have to say the access has seen better days, almost bottomed out my Avalanche but that was probably my fault for driving directly into an old wheel groove instead of going around. We were catching several 7-8" crappies in about 10-20 fow out about 100 yards from the island in 29fow max depth range.

Just got back from the snow and all, crappies are biting in about 20 FOW, only two keepers though, most of them were under 8"..i was out for only 2 hours before the propane let out and I decided to head out.

I was out yesterday, and well... same thing, lots of smaller crappies, a few keepers, and zero walleyes! What does a walleye look like again?

There are a few tents out on BE every day. Anyone been out lately or know if the access is still passable?

I went out on Bald Eagle Saturday afternoon. The ice is at least 24 inches thick but there was a lot of water on top. The landing was OK and there were guys in cars driving through. Took my 8 year old niece out and ended up with 4 perch and two sunnies before we quit at 6 pm. Wind about blew us off the lake and the Clam was ready to head to Hugo. The access may be pretty chewed up with the warm weather today and tomorrow.

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!

      I hope to see it and believe it next week! Nice looking crappie

      Been out couple times this last week. Between the rain and wind there really was only one day this past week where it was actually warm out fishing.  Water temps are low mid 50s yet, not much change from last week.  Fish are still holding out off the first break on some area lakes and right up in the boat channels and back bays of others.   Been keeping it pretty simple as far as tackle used. Having the best luck with the lil hustler tubes under a small float or throwing the Bobby Garland baby shads with a 1/32 jig head.  The Bobby's have definitely been my big fish catcher this spring.

      The water looks low but appears to be on the rise. We will be there  the week after opener. I have been going since 1981 and enjoying the experience. We love the variety of fish we catch and release each year. Ice went out a bit earlier than in years past. Water may be warmer and plan to target some crappies. We fish predominately in Sand Point as we camp. Good luck all and tight lines. We may consider the hike to Lake Lucille which we did 2 years ago.

      thats great to hear regarding the lake levels!!!!!!

      On an off light precipitation today. Hoping the weather this weekend will be nice so I can get out and crappie fish and check the weather. My yard has standing water and the driveway is a mess. Lot of lakes are near standard water levels which is good. Heard they are done stripping eggs on cut foot. Shaping up to be a good opener. Last year fished open water 60+ days and 28 different lakes. Hopefully bump both those numbers up this year

      I don't think its 100% accurate, you are just relying on other average joes to report precipitation. But I think most numbers there are right in the ball park, especially when you see consistency among multiple reports in a general area.   It's probably more accurate than what the weather terrorists say on the news  which usually only reports metro areas. cocorahs is good for getting rural area reports you just might not have as many reports to go off of
