Where should I go?!?!?!?!

[hip_hop_fisherman]

I live in Mora and am planning on fishing Mille Lacs sometime in the next couple days. I was wondering where to go to catch some walleye or even a nice amount of perch. Don't really mind not keeping any I just want the fight. Can anyone tell me where to go and where would be my best bet to catch some fish? I'd like to go onto the lake somewhere near Isle. Have never fished Mille Lacs in the winter and would appreciate any info on where to catch the fish, and also where its safe to head out from and get to the spot! Would also prefer to be able to drive! Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

Hip Hop,

Just an FYI. Walleye season is closed. For some perch locations, well I have been out of town for 3 weeks and haven't been able to get up there. Last I was out there, we were fishing 30-32 feet of water on the mud flats and were getting some really nice ones.

Good luck

try out of liberty beach to the end of their road (there is a pine tree in the ice) go about a 1/2 mile straight past that and you should be on 7 mile flat.
we caught 9 12inch perch in 32-35 ft.All caught in the A.M with minnow heads on angel eyes..Also 6 walleye but that was last weekend.

Hip- Liberty beach is one of the more popular places to go our of on the east side. It is private and there will be a fee for road pass, I would guess it is $10 like most other places, but well worth it if you don't know the lake. I think I might know a little about the perch spots Paul was referring to, it was actually off the edge in about 36 feet, but as of last Sunday they are no longer there. Too bad too, cause I had 4 over 14 inches and one solid 14 1/2(probably should have put it on the wall) and most of the others were 13 or better. The only one 1 found last Sunday was 13 inches off the large north hump of boot in 35 feet and I worked lots of different flats with no more perch. The schools are hard to find, I believe they are schooled pretty tight, all you can do is pop lots of holes and hope you find them.

Thanks for the info!

Bigeyes,

Actually the spot that we were fishing last is 1 flat north and 1 flat east of where you were getting yours. Not quite as big as your, but they seemed to be more numerous, at least as of 10 days ago

You might think I'm stupid since everyone seems to be talking about Liberty Beach, but is that in Isle?? LOL I've never even heard of Liberty Beach before! I don't really know Mille Lacs too well. I fish there in the spring and summer with my grandfather and my dad, but I've never been there on my own and I don't really know where anything is. I guess the questions that still remain for me are were is Liberty Beach exactly, and is there a fee for heading out from there?? Thanks to those who have helped me thus far and to whoever helps me from this point on! It's greatly appreciated! I'm glad I found this site because I LOVE IT!!!!
