Has anybody stayed at or heard anything about Camp Pennington on Kitchi Lake? Good, bad or otherwise. We,re looking for a smaller less crowded place for next summer, probably in September. Thanks much, Bob T.

You don't have to worry about crowds in Sept. unless you hit one of the weekends for a Muskie Tournament, even then the Lake or the resorts are not real crowded with the exception of the host resort. You are off the beaten path, where you are is going to be quiet. Not that there is anything wrong with that............Ron

Col Ron,

We'll be coming up in May and would like to meet you. We'll be there 21-28 May, the same time as the Texans. We'll be at Sahkahtay.

Colonel,

How is Kitchie in the fall? I heard it gets pretty weed choked as the year goes on. Is this correct?

Thank you.

Gowdy

Ballbuster, I'm just a short walk away. I am going to Canada for a tournament I should be back on the 21st of May. Do me a favor and send me an email before you leave. Although I'll be in Canada, I will see it when I get back to Cass Lake Lodge. My phone number up there is 218-335-2783. Have a warm winter. Ron

Gowdy, from mid-August on, I don't spend much time in there unless the winds are just beating me to death. But yes, it does get weedy. Normally in the fall, on a regular year, the fish are biting good on the main bars which is a lot closer and a lot more convenient to get to. Hey, thanks for that cigar last year at the "Hole", just happened to remember that. Ron

Will Do that Col Ron. In case you forgot I'll have my two brothers with me. Look forward to meeting you.

Hey Gowdy,

      Just gotta use some common sense and have some ice safety gear.  If I hadn’t duffed the shot on the buck on the last day of rifle season, I’d probably be on the ice this weekend also.  Instead, I’ll still be chasing some vennie.

      Looks like Vermilion froze overnight on Monday, which would make it officially frozen Tuesday, December 3.  I am going out to McKinley Park Friday morning to check out the ice conditions and possibly fish.

      Looking at the webcams, I don't see any open water. Is Big Bay completely frozen over yet?   The forecast looks like a few inches of snow Sunday/Monday followed by temps below zero.

      I'd say lakes under 500 acers less than 40 ft deep. They're targeting panfish. We're making ice everyday. Windy today, terrible roads, lots of people decided that they needed to drive fast and that unfortunately led to some vehicles doing some incidental off roading

      Fall was like a month long.  Maybe even less.  I'm quite a bit south of you but I can recall fishing in short sleeves in late October.  Less than a month later, prior to Thanksgiving, winter arrived.   September and most of October were way more like summer than fall.  Kind of too bad, I like fall.

      It's definitely winter, we have about 4-6 inches of fluffy snow on the ground which has predominantly blown off the ice. I have several friends out on the ice as of late 5-6 inches of ice. I work the next two days, will get the gear together Saturday and go Sunday. I'd be completely fine if we have an early spring like earlier this year.
