Flats?


Fathead

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

Wondering if anyone has been out on the flats lately? Namely the eastern flats...Boot, Fishers, Blue Jug, Agates Needle (technically a north flat)?

I have not seen much traffic on this subject, which leads me to believe that either people are not fishing them much, or they're keeping their successes Hush Hush.

Six of us are heading out to Fishers (we think) this Saturday. Last year we did very well for both eyes and perch (however, last year was a good year everywhere).

Just looking for feedback on whether you have been out there, if things are going, and what seems to be the setup that has been the "ticket".

Has anyone been drving out to these flats from Terry" Boat Harbor? How far are people driving trucks out. Sorry to ask this question but as of the recent weather, I opt not to fish the big lake yet.

On sunday while driving down 169 between Garrison and the Casino, there was a really large yellow sign that advertised "Road to the Flats $7" Sorry I can't be more specific about the location or the name of the resort, I wasn't paying too close attention. Hope that helps.

Stay away from Terry's Boat Harbor. They dont have access to the flats and the place is a dump and hes a bad attitude. No customer service at all.

I have to disagree on Terry's, the crew there usually provides really good info(usually the best I can get on Milly) They are fair and nice to easy to get along with. To be fair, yes the place is kind of a dive. I don't think you will see him or any other resort owners post on here though, seems like they never do. Every year he plows roads to the flats like 8 mile and Seguchie. I stoped in and talked to him 2 weeks ago and people were only allowed to go out in wheelers to the flats and I doubt he has had enough cold weather since then to make a road. Other great resorts to go out of are Myr mar(usually plows out to 8 mile) and Red door(plows to a number of smaller flats like bombeck) Both run a clean 1st class operation and seem to appreciate the business and want to help you find fish.

      My go to lures with lead core have been #5 Shad Raps and #7 Jointed Rapalas.  With Shad Raps I usually start about 2 mph with 85 ft of lead out in 20 ft of water. I usually use a 20 ft mono leader.  With Jointed Rapalas I let out 100ft of lead traveling 2 mph.  I am moving between 20 and 25 ft of water.

      My name is HANNA HENRY .I want to give thanks to HAKEEM AHMED for bringing back my ex husband.No one could have ever made me believe that the letter I’m about to write would actually one day be written. I was the world’s biggest skeptic. I never believed in magic spells or anything like this, but I was told by a reliable source (a very close co-worker) that Trust is a very dedicated, gifted, and talented person,It was one of the best things I have ever done. My love life was in shambles; I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn’t face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he broke up with me again . I was confused and did not know what to do again, rather they got in contact with HAKEEM AHMED. He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. HAKEEM AHMED makes him realize how much we love and need each other .This man is for REAL and for good . He can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back! It was like a miracle! He suddenly wanted to go to marriage counseling, and we’re doing very, very well , in our love life . contact email [email protected] or text or add him up on whatsApp at: +27788392740 his web page http://astrologerastrology.com

      You'll appreciate having less guys in the boat if you need to drag raps.

      I love pulling lead core but usually don't pull it out until later in the season.  Can you share depth and speed numbers that were working with lead?  Thanks.

      Heading up early Saturday morning. Going to be a short, discombobulated trip this year. Starting with 4 of us but one has to leave to watch his son play in state (WI) baseball tournament on Tuesday. Rest of us are only there until Wednesday. Kind of disappointing but I'm thinking we'll have to make a trip in September as well.    Forecast calls for wind!

      Those are cormorants and they are aggressive fish eaters.  I saw more last weekend than typical on vermilion.  Pretty common  on the east end but I don’t usually see much of any on the west which is where we were.  They eat a lot of fish and surprisingly large fish for their size so they aren’t great for the fish populations.     I can’t believe how fast the water warmed up.  We were seeing up to the high 70’s last weekend.  Typically mid June is mid to upper 60’s.  The Muskies didn’t seem to be too fired up with the quick warm up.  The ones we moved were lazy and would not go in to the turn.  Hopefully some more normal temps this week help.
