How does the cold keep you off the ice? Get your house setup and turn the heater on and start catchin' some fish.

Lets not be a bunch of fair weather ice anglers here. Crappie come fish with me. We'll find you some cold weather. For me fishing isn't very good if the wind chill's above -30.

What a bunch of girls, Not that I want to show my age, but I can remember sitting on the ice on a metal 5 gal pail in below zero temps chopping a hole with a spud and catching a limit befor leaving. Ya, it was a while ago, but I was your age then. We sure have gotten soft. It's a sad day when a bunch of seniors can kick your butts you 30 somthing guys!

That is funny right there. I have to admitt fish I have gotten soft. I was thinking about this the other day and how I am gonna get back to fishing on a bucket and just using the plush ice house as a base camp.

Thanks for the kick in the butt.

Welcome to FM Tom. I agree with you, might not be as old, but did a lot of time on a bucket. I don't let cold stop me from going out now, but I do sit inside a house of some sorts for my fishing.

Hey guys, I am only 57, and in great shape. I sit in a house most of the time too now. I was born with a fish pole in my hand though. My grand father owned an impliment dealership and sold chain saws, so my first auger was a chain saw, When the ice got thicker than the the chain saw could reach it was back to the spud. See you guys out there

      Back when the DNR was seining our beach in July I asked, and apparently they were through oak narrows.   But long way to go to get to us.   I'll keep my eyes open and my mask and snorkel on.  Didn't see any sign off them this summer.

      Nice job Troy.   We are happy with our opening day for ducks.  2 man limit of mixed species by 10am.  LOTS of people where we were today but that was expected.  Other than getting beat to our spot, no issues that would keep up away.  Not even the rain.

      Thanks, I'm riding this now TW200 so not sure I can get on any of the ATV trails. Might have to sled by in the winter! 👍

      There are actually 3 tree carvings on the trail from Soudan to Ely.  I saw 2 of them but missed the 3rd.  I believe that trail is the Prospector Trail #4 or #6.  You have to start from the parking lot on the Murray Road 2 miles past Soudan since several property owners on the old railroad bed didn't allow off-road vehicles on their properties.  Another option is to travel from Tower to Embarrass then on to Ely, but that adds a couple hours to the trip.

      I've seen that caving on a few web pages. What trail is that on?  It would be cool to ride by. 👍

      The colors are getting good. Beautiful time of year. Maples are full red and birch and aspen are going too.  I’m not finding a formula for walleyes. Best luck when fishing saddles and shoreline drop offs 10’ down to 20’. I’m using old crawlers, too, because a) it’s hard to find minnows although Northwoods in Cook has them and b) it’s been too warm to keep them alive.  We do have a change in weather happening right now. Wind is coming up and the temperature is dropping. It’s going to be hard to fish Saturday through Monday but the change could be good after that.  Good luck, you’ll need some. They are out there and you’ll get dinner but you’ll have to work for them. RLG

      Thank you. Yes, weather does look sketchy but we'll make the best of it. Looking forward to the colors and just getting away.

      Some more heavily fished lakes are tough ALL season.  Lake Minnetonka and Mille Lacs come to mind.  The water is clear, there are tournaments all the time, and the fish are not easy to catch.   That is why I focus my efforts on lakes with less pressure.
