Myself and Run-and-Gun hit Caribou lake tonight and managed about half dozen crappies in 12 feet water. Anybody else doing anything?

AJ,

After I left for Hibbing, Darrell stayed at my house and caught only 1, but the other buddies of mine in the house next to me (only just a few feet away) managed to pull out a total of 19. Odd, but that's how it goes.

Nunnu, thats how it goes for crappie fishing, those darn things school up so tight sometimes and sometimes move around in no predictable pattern. Al our fish came in one at a time at diffenent times, no schoolers.

Andy J and I caught some Perch today out on Pike. We had some good little schools come in, but there was quite a bit of dead time too. Yesterday my Dad and I fished out on Grand. We only fished for a few hours and we caught one small walleye, a few small northerns, and one really fat 32" northern. That fish went on 3 really good runs, and was a joy to catch. There were quite a few people out there. Did anyone else have any luck?

A buddy and I were out on a back bay in WI on Sat. and managed eight crappies, and of course I missed a pretty huge one. Get out while you can cause it is going to get cold fast this week.

Got a little fishing in on Saturday near Cromwell. 6 of us caught around 50 crappies and 1 small pike in about 5 hours of fishing. Most of the fish were medium sized with a few smaller ones and a couple bigger fish. All fish were released.

Didn't make WInnie like originally planned. Had forgotten my daughter had games Friday and Saturday night. Have to prioritize the family events. Did get out Saturday morning to Nichols. Had done quite well there couple weeks ago but fished for a few hours and was quite slow (2 crappies--neither worth keeping). Jumped over to Dinham for the first time and caught a few crappies. Again..very slow bite and too small to keep. Wondering if anyone has been up to Boulder? ANyone up for a Boulder trip this coming Saturday?

Hit boulder last tuesday and got only 1 crappie, a nice one around 14 inches. Lost two others, and that was all for the 4 hours we were out.

I went to Caribou last week and managed a small walleye and 7 or so decent crappie. Then boulder on Monday. First time out on that lake, we caught a half dozen real tiny walleyes. Does anyone know where on boulder a guy could find some larger fish? I was fishing out by that first group of shacks. Thanks and good luck.

      thats great to hear regarding the lake levels!!!!!!

      On an off light precipitation today. Hoping the weather this weekend will be nice so I can get out and crappie fish and check the weather. My yard has standing water and the driveway is a mess. Lot of lakes are near standard water levels which is good. Heard they are done stripping eggs on cut foot. Shaping up to be a good opener. Last year fished open water 60+ days and 28 different lakes. Hopefully bump both those numbers up this year

      I don't think its 100% accurate, you are just relying on other average joes to report precipitation. But I think most numbers there are right in the ball park, especially when you see consistency among multiple reports in a general area.   It's probably more accurate than what the weather terrorists say on the news  which usually only reports metro areas. cocorahs is good for getting rural area reports you just might not have as many reports to go off of

      Thanks Mike.  I've been looking at bags of it for years but never wanted to chance wasting good meat on it.  I have a gas and charcoal grills, but really love the flavor of charcoal over gas. Most of the time it's if we have time to use one or the other.

      On the south end...   The big open water, otherwise known as Big Traverse Bay, is ice free.  The bays and tributaries of LOW such as Zippel Bay, Bostic Bay and Four Mile Bay are ice free as well.  The lake is in good shape for the MN Fishing Opener on May 11th. The many bays and backwaters of the lake have been receiving attention from spring pike anglers.  Some pike have already entered the bays, spawned and gone back out to the lake, but there are still a pile of fish to be had.   The pike season on LOW is open year round. The limit is 3 pike per day with one fish allowed more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. On the Rainy River...  Another great week sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River.  The bite has been very good and lots of fish of all sizes are being boated.     Sturgeon are being caught from Four Mile Bay at the mouth of the Rainy River all the way to Birchdale, about 42 miles.  There are many boat ramps along the river to make life easy.  Starting from the east going west...   -Nelson Park at Birchdale (About 30 miles east of Baudette) -Frontier (9 miles west of Birchdale) -Vidas (Near Clementson Rapids) -Timbermill Park (East Baudette) -Peace Park (International Drive, Baudette) -Wheeler's Point (mouth of Rainy River)  The sturgeon season continues through May 15th and resumes again July 1st.   Oct 1 - April 23, Catch and Release April 24 - May 7, Harvest Season May 8 - May 15, Catch and Release May 16 - June 30, Sturgeon Fishing Closed July 1 - Sep 30, Harvest Season If you fish during the sturgeon harvest season and you want to keep a sturgeon, you must purchase a sturgeon tag for $5 prior to fishing.    One sturgeon per calendar year (45 - 50" inclusive, or over 75"). Up at the NW Angle...  The Angle is ice free.  Resorts are gearing up for the fishing opener which is expected to be excellent.  The late ice bite was very good and the walleyes are in good numbers amongst the islands area of the NW Angle.

      Charcoal Briquettes are great for low and slow cooking as they produce long-lasting heat. Lump Charcoal burns hotter and adds more flavour to your food; therefore is great for hot and fast cooking.
