Walleye picked back up for me this weekend. had a strong night bite on sat. my first strong night bite since dec. iced 5 sat. night. Brought home 16 perch and 3 eyes, not a bad bite.

Did you need an extension on your auger drilling in the 7mile area? Wondering since I'm heading up there this weekend. Thanks.

I did not need one but it is getting close

Fished sunday, 2 guys, 90+ tullibees, 25 perch(kept 18, 9.5"-11"), 1 walleye 27". Walleye was caught at noon, on a hex fly tipped with a waxworm, and 7ft off bottom crazy. Fished in 34-36ft, most perch were caught in 34ft on waxies and crappie minnows. All but 7 tullies came from 36ft on "flipper" jigs and hex fly's.

where were u fishing at would love to get into the action on the tuilbees and perch

Fished Saturday with my 2 sons, my dad, my nephew and brother in law. 0 walleye, 0 pike, 0 tullibee, and 2 small perch to show for our efforts. Fished on the SE side of the lake from 11:30 am until 8:00 pm in a day rental house from Macs 26 ft of water. We had the house rented until 11 pm but couldn't take it staring at motionless bobbers so we left early. Had 8 lines down in the house plus 6 tip ups spread around the house. Set depths everywhere from 6 inches off the bottom to 5 ft. off the bottom. Saw fish all day on the bottom with the flasher but they would not bite. Tried wax worms, maggots, fatheads, and shiners. Talked to a couple guys in another rental house near ours who had the exact same luck that we had. A big dead sea is what we experienced.

Read through the tullibee threads, I don't think anybody is going to give up there hotspot. I've caught tullibees on everything from spoons with minnow heads to small jigs with waxies. Do your homework and drill lots of holes like any successful fisherman.

Perchslayer if you seach back to about 2/4/10 you will find a set of gps cords where I caught most my tullies in the last 2 years. I still use those cords and I just seen on here last week someone mentioned they also still use them and catch fish. I have got many walleye perch and tullies off of those cords. Good luck and see you on the water KF

My son and I hit Mille Lacs on Sunday from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm. We ended up catching and releasing 5 keeper sized perch (one just under 13 inches) and two tulibee. If not for the camera we would only have caught two fish, They were very neutral and had to be worked hard. We caught nothing after noon...wish we could have gotten there earlier. We were out of Terry's just off Seguchie in 32 feet of water. No need for an extension by the way.

Kingfish I can't find those cords in the old thread

Posted

No luck out on Mille Lacs last Saturday either for Tullibees... Went out of Terry's this time and went on the plowed road 789 to the Tullibee spots. Fished all day, drilled at least 50 holes and no Tullibees at all. I did catch some Perches though. Even targeted the edges of flats ( I do have a GPS with Lakemaster Chip). Where are those Tullibees? Last season, I had a much easier time finding them.

check 2/10/10

We went out yesterday again and got into the perch for most of the day. No jumbos, most were in the 9-10 inch range and a couple that pushed 11.

We got very few on waxies, mostly minnow heads and whole minnows. We never got one tullie, nor a walleye, we were fishing in 32 feet of water.

The perch would go in spurts...gets 5-6 and they would stop, move and find another hole with a bite in it and 5-6 more. Go back to the first holes and 5-6 more.

In some spots we needed the extention and in others not....make sure you don't forget your cleats, ice is head cracking slick in spots!

was out on the 7 Saturday in the bowl,at the bottom of the shelf,

very hard bite, had the cameras down all day

and saw fish all day but they just went hungry,

they would swim right by the bait and not even look at it,

and even with the cameras it took a lot of coaxing

to get them to bite, 1 tulle and 4 perch.

Fished Saturday 10am through Monday Noon with solid results. Caught 20 or so Perch and kept about 13 and then managed to get half a dozen Walleyes and half a dozen Tullies. The bite was consistent Sat. through Sunday mid day and then everything slowed to a crawl. Most effective was a spoon with waxies for the Perch and plain red hook on a set line next to a spoon being jigged with larger minnow on the set line for eyes. With the camera we found that banging a small bug like jig in the muck/mud brought the bigger jumbos in and they picked those right up out of the muck/mud. We went out of Rocky Reef resort and found a small hump away from the houses that had been setup for some time. With a Map the inside turns seemed to produce the most just off the hump (26'-29').

We fished for a few hours this morning. The bite was SLOW. We really had to work to pick up the 8 jumbos we brought home. I fished from 22-32 ft in 2 new spots for me on the South end, just out of Isle Bay. Spoons did pull a few fish but panfish jigs with euros did best.

Tough out there today. Not nearly as many fish on the vexilar as the last couple of outings. The few jumbos we got we worked for. Jumped around on some of the flats fished all depths. Best presentation was hali spoons and waxworms. Plus side is the snow is takeing a beating.

Posted

Was out today until 2 end up with 2 eyes 15.5 and 17 and released 4 others and had 12 perch 9.5 to 12 in. and a ton of tulibees.

Can any one tell me if there is a resort that has a road to seguchie flat?

Posted

I believe Terry's road goes over seguchie in route to 8 mile.

Heading up tomorrow. Is the ice like a sheet of glass now after today ? Any water on ice ? Thanks

Posted

I'm planning on weekend trip - hows the warm weather? Slush and standing water? I pulled my shack off Lake MArion in the metro yesterday and it was 4 inches of standing water!

Just got back, almost no snow but 4" of water in some places in close out of Terrys. There still some deep snow piles we saw 2 trucks get stuck off road.

Thanks for the update! I appreciate it. No trip for me. Come out of the grocery store and the wifes car wont start or go in reverse,neutral or park. Really had to monkey with the shifter to get to start and when we limped it home it would stay in low. 07 Saturn Aura. Not even 50'000 on it. Thats what I'll be doing tomorrow now. UGGHH I can hear it already " They were snapping like pirahanas on Thursday " Story of my life !

Thanks for the report. Does there seem to be standing water everywhere, even out in the flats or 8 mile? Or just near the shores. thanks

      I moved the clips on the jet needles up to the top groove to lean it out.  This eliminated the mid-range bog and the sled accelerates well even when warm.  The plugs are not quite dark now, but look good.  I'll have to rebuild the Mikuni carbs this summer for the permanent solution.  I'll also repair or replace the primary clutch to eliminate that issue.  Thanks for all of the suggestions.

      No.  I tried posting a 15 second video a while back in the accepted MP4 format and it wouldn’t play.  It sucks.

      On the South Shore...  There is still some ice fishing taking place by some hardcore ice anglers, but most have called it a good year.  For those still getting out on the ice, fishing has been good.  Most resort ice accesses have been closed for the year.  Safety first always.   Ditches are running along the south end of the lake which means water is running into the bays.  Moving water will soon pop open the bays and anglers will be out open water targeting huge pike while they head to spawning areas.  Pike fishing is year round on Lake of the Woods and can be excellent during the spring in back bays. On the Rainy River...  Spring open water fishing began over a week ago and has started out very good with some big walleyes being caught and released!     As of April 8th, the Rainy River is open to the west of Baudette and gaining every day.  With warm temps in the weekly forecast, not only will the ice deteriorate quickly, but the walleye bite should get even better.  Weather forecast in the next week shows 60's.   There are three boat ramps open.  The Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier Access (about 8 miles to the west of Nelson Park) and the Vidas boat ramp just east of Clementson and the Rapid River.     Most walleye anglers are jigging with either plastics or minnows.  Use bright plastics such as chartreuse, orange, pink and white.  Some are slowly drifting a jig with a minnow such as emerald shiners, fatheads or rainbows.     Trolling crankbaits against the current is also effective and will catch fish.  This is also a good technique to cover water if you are not on fish. Rainy River walleye fishing is catch and release from March 1st through April 14th on Four Mile Bay and the Rainy River.  Initial reports for sturgeon are also good.  Anchored up in a hole or on the slope of a hole with a no roll sinker and sturgeon rig is the ticket.  A sturgeon rig is about an18 inch leader with a 3/0 or 4/0 circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers and emerald shiners.  Here are the seasons for sturgeon fishing...   -Catch and Release Season: May 8th – May 15th and October 1 – April 23rd. -Harvest Season: April 24th – May 7th and July 1 – September 30. -Closed Season: May 16th – June 30th. Up at the Northwest Angle...  It has been a great ice fishing year up at the Angle.  While there are a few locals still getting out, resorts have pulled off their fish houses and called it a year.  There are many areas showing open water primarily where there is current.  Progress to open water is being made.   The walleye and sauger season is open through April 14th. Pike fishing never closes, and perch and crappie remain open year-round as well.  You can fish for sturgeon through May 15th.
