How 'bout a 5hp Honda 2600# pressure washer from Home Depot? Yea, baby, my boat is soooo clean! If you are in the market for a washer, I suggest you check this unit out. It is awesome.

I recieved the book-
"Reagan, A life in Letters"

This is a truly awesome book revealing the life of the greatest President of my lifetime, and probably the greatest since Lincoln. My respect for this man grows with each page I read.

God Bless President Ronald Reagan

Mr. President,
"All in all, not bad, not bad"
President Reagan in his final
address to the American people
as President.

I got cards and phone calls, from my kids, a card from my wife that put a smile on my face, and I got to take the day off and loaf! I had just came off of a monster week of work. No fixing this or that, no running here, or there, we had been up to Pokagama on Saturday, so I was ready to watch the twins and Phil Mickelson give away the U.S. Open...it was "Awwwite!"

Had to give up our Father/Son Fishing tournament in Wabasha but I got to spend all day long with my new Granddaughter, my son's first child so I think I came out the winner.
Also got a nice shop vac to vacumn out the boat and a card for 11 car washes.
Plus a little somethin - somethin if you know what I mean.

I got a "Happy Fathers Day" from my son as he sat down to eat those Basswood Lake walleyes. He also left the grandchildren for the rest of the day.

I got to fish with my 12 year old in the Kraus-Anderson Walleye Classic on Lake Bemidji. It was my first "real" tournament and an incredible experience to share with a son or daughter.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
