McQuoid's Resort

I was thinking about renting a fish house from McQuoids. I was wondering if they are nice, and do they put you on fish? I was planning on taking my son and his friends up there.

Thanks

Walleye: We moved a perm from the west side to their resort last Saturday. At that time they were still short of Hennepin Island because of iffy ice. With the cold this last week they have now moved houses over Hennepin and are out on the gravel in 28'-32' of water. They moved our house yesterday and my son is there now and spent the night. I just tried to call him for some bite info, no answer, maybe still in bed.

To answer your other question regarding the house's for rent, they are top notch. Very nice house's with all the bells and whistles. They do everything they can to get you into fish, but they can only do so much, the fish have to also cooperate. When we moved last week we were in 23' of water, no action. Was there Thursday from 1pm to 8pm and three perch.

If I get through to my son, I'll let you know what went on last night and this morning. Very little snow on the ice, travel is good, with 18=21" of ice. Bill

Walley: Just got off the phone with my son. He was set up at 4pm yesterday and since that time, 3 perch and two pout. Nothing this morning so far. Pout came in at 100am-130zm this morning. Sorry for the bad news. Bill

Thanks for the info Bturck. I have seen the fish houses and they do look very nice. As for the fishing it is up to the fish. Wish your son good luck

Mcquoids has some of the nicest houses and people. I would highly recomend them. There have been times did well in the houses, and times the fishing was a little slow.

Some friends and I rented a house out of mcquoids last year and it was top of the line. Very nice houses and the service was excellent. We even caught some fish. I highly recommend them also.

McQuoids has pulled a lot of their houses out past Hennepin onto the deeper gravel. Hopefully that bite will start to go in the deeper water. I think a bit of stability in the temps will help a lot. Good luck to all, and hang on. Bill

Going to Mcquoids on 1/14-1/16, I'll let you know how we do. Not sure how much fishing will get done, there is 12 of us and a lot of beer.

      So I am also moving to the Lino lakes area in just 3 weeks and fishing is the only thing I would like to do… fishing buddy’s or any good spots would be appreciated

      Yes, MN is very difficult to register anything that had a title or a original registration card. I've ran into the same issue with old snowmobiles, and motorcycles it suks. Hope he can get it done over in Wisconsin for you. Good Luck.

      Thanks.  Very similar to my tactics.  I usually haven't started using lead core until August and then we are fishing in 30 FOW.  I will give it a try in 20-25'.

      It's amazing how much the water level is dropping. It looks like we've been getting enough rain to keep the forest hydrated but not enough to fill the lake.

      Finally made it up to Vermilion this summer.  Between opening our place in Soudan and entertaining the wife and dog I only made it out on the lake 1½ hours Wednesday evening and 3½ hours Thursday morning.  In those 5 hours all I caught was a 10" perch.  I had 3 other light bites and that was it.  The wife caught two 8" eyes Wednesday and didn't get out Thursday morning with me.  Vermilion Fuel and Food didn't have rainbows, and their chubs were very small and pike suckers were too big (they did have a river-mix that looked good that I should have tried).  I did see a few mayflies on the surface so I will blame all of those factors on my lack of success, although my lack of fishing skills factored in also.  Many others fishing around us and I only saw one other fish being landed so maybe I wasn't the only one struggling to catch fish.   Water temp was 65°F in Stuntz Bay and the water level is running 13" lower than last year at this time as shown below.  Good luck fishing and enjoy the lake.  It was beautiful out there.
