Moose's Report - Cambridge-Elk River-Foley-Milaca-Mora-Ogilvie Fishing Reports

[fishingstar]

We had same problem out here on Star. technically the lake is in the road right a way. People would park on both sides of the road and load atv's and gear blocking the road. The small cabin next to it has a port a poty and people were using it. The county put up sings but that didn't help.

The last straw was a group of fishermen was loaded and loading up when  a older lady wanted by and the out come was not good. Now there is a gate across that spot.

Took a friends kid out and he out fished me. It was close but he did catch more than me. We kept some for a fish fry . We fished from 10:30 to 3:30. I used plastics and jigging spoons with no bait and he use a jigging spoon with euros.

Anyone want to meet up and fish this weekend private message me .

Yesterday, I finally burnt up my drill  after 50 or more holes. Now with that said I cut a lot of holes compared to most anglers. Don’t worry DCD999 is order and  should be showing up this week . 

 

Now for the goods the pin head minnow jig is still working very well.  I was fishing with my bosses dad who met me on the lake and I even got my dad away from making Baby Beavers to go fishing. My bosses dad went home with 13 keeper gills and my dad went home with enough fish to have a fish fry today for the Baby Beaver Bait staff. Then riverrat316 showed up for some fun, but the three guys I was fishing with complained that they were not catching fish as good as me. 
 

key tips 3 pound test line, 1/16 oz pinhead minnow and the custom rod my nephew made for me. I also had my Kichler custom rigged up with 3 pound test, a 4 mm gold jig with a you a white and red flaked maki mino I use the second set up after I picked off the aggressive fish first. 
 

the depth was 20-22 feet away from the crowd. 17-20 inches of ice.

Anyone finding any sheds yet?

[monstermoose78]

It’s time to see if there is interest in a get together? Please let me know if you would be interested. 

[monstermoose78]

Took my brother and cousin out looking for eyes and I put em on some eyes. Now I will try some night fishing. Finding a small point with no people around might have made the difference.

[monstermoose78]

O yeah got a new drill a DCD999 so I need to test it out.

Anyone going out fishing this weekend?

[monstermoose78]

These fish were from last weekend fishing with Eyeguy and Rick. I kept enough fish so grandma had a couple meals for lent. Thank you Eyeguy and Rick for fishing with me. 

[monstermoose78]

Went fishing with my brother tonight and smacked the crappies as he is having a fish fry for his friends. 

[monstermoose78]

Ok details from last weekend fished 16-19 feet of water. The bait I did best on was 4 mm jig in gold with a maki mino white with red flakes. I also did well with pinhead minnow jig. It was mostly bluegills, but I did catch a number of small crappies which is great to see some small fish again.

[monstermoose78]

Last night for the crappies a 1/8 oZ buckshot spoon tipped with a crappie minnow head, but the best was a 4mm tungsten jig the glowed with maki mino in glow color. Depth was 25-28 feet please remember when fishing deep water these fish don’t release well, so keep the fish you catch and as they will swim away but they will die. 

[monstermoose78]

Well I am stuck at home this weekend as we are down to one vehicle. The truck blew a brake line and my car has a fuel regulator sensor out. Neither will be fixed until Tuesday. So please post some fish pictures for me. Then this week at work we had a gas leak shut us down for a day and half. We did get pizza today so I guess that made up for it.

I went to that and saw that booth.  Didn't buy any though.

 

The Northwest Sportshow and the Deer & Turkey Classic are both next weekend.  I can't do both and I'm leaning towards the Northwest Sportshow at the Convention Center.  Good to have all these expos and shows back to attend.  Gets me in the mood for turkey hunting and spring crappie fishing.

[monstermoose78]

I hope to be on the ice next weekend for at least one more trip with the truck. The fish were deeper than I expected.

Stop by Limestone to take a look last weekend.  I just hope the one truck out there even got off the Ice.  The landing was bad. 

 

[Yetzer2468]

Buddy of mine just let me know about Limestone this week. Gonna try it out in that southern bowl with the yak for some bass when the season opens. Ever try it for bass?

[monstermoose78]

Hey guys don’t forget Shakopee lake has new bluegill rules now.
