Patch Motel and Izzy's

[Get'n Jiggy]

Anyone had any experiance with this operation? Thinking of a late ice trip.

Thanks in advance, any info is appreciated.

I stayed there once and it is a decent place. Lots of parking available and it is well lit so there shouldnt be much issues at night.

Izzy's has great food to fill you up and a drink or too to help ponder the fish stories of the day.

The Patch is a great place to stay. Good nightlife at Izzy's and great food at the restaruant.

Wintertime I'm a Perch eater!!

Well Bill last week before the storm the fish were going nuts over here on the west side. 3 trips out to the middle of the Muskeg, 2 were Walleye trips with plenty of 16-18's to go around, coupla good Saugers there too. Couple low slotters is all I've gotten but not really fishing on a 'great' spot for the BIG girls though one could pop up anywhere anytime on this pond. Last Tuesday went Perchin', 28 for the 2 of us for the day all 10.5 to 12.5, threw back 4-5 over 13 for seed, and quite a few good sauger and a few eyes' released also.. We were Perchin' that day so them others go back!!

Now yesterday I was back to the spot I pounded Walleyes non stop with Dirtball last Monday and it was tougher verging on dead sloooow.. 1030 to 430 I only pulled 17-18 fish, 6-7 were keepable good size saugers released, 2 dinker Walleye and the remainder dinker Saugs. About half of my day's total came in a single flury right around 1230 to 1.. Musta been a good school of Saugers that meandered on in for lunch! Dropped a good low slot lookin' eyeball to start the day! Switched up a good dozen times on the jig rod and a half dozen on the deadstick including plain hook rigging and they did'nt want to eat nothing. 1 now and then on this or that would just barely bite and I missed a good share of those. Tried live Shiners big and small, froze Shiners wholes and heads, as well as fatheads big and small on a variety of my confidence baits as well as other baits people swear by on here and..You know what I mean Bill, they come up hang out and just sniff some days!

This is a good reliable rubble near to rockpile Walleye mainly type waypoint that I've fished often each winter for many years, worth sitting on as the fish come and go here regular thru the day and it usually has an early/late fury but not yesterday!!

Last Monday was nuts and memorable 1 line day with 9 outta 10 fish charging in and plain whacking the bait, lost count but had to have gotten 40 anyhows and all were gooduns outside of a couple small eyes.

Another brite spot this winter is I have yet to get a slimey Pike, or smelly Tulibee, nor a nasty Burbot on my lines.

Good report Norm, thanks. As you know I am east so conditions will vary for sure. Some days are just better than others but always great to be in your part of the State....
