So, Me and the guys are coming up for our big camping trip. And, since the fishing is spectacular in summer I thought I'd try my hand at ice fishing the B-Dub. The problem is that I don't know the first thing about ice fishing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. What to use for bait and how to use it mostly.

Bring ciscos for pike and get good tip ups with heavy line on them and a good quick strike rigs so ya can let them 10-19 pounders go. Other wise i would bring my walleye rods and fatheads. Hope ya get good weather when your in the bdub.

Pikemonster, welcome to FM!

It would help alot to know where you're going, how you're getting there, when you're coming, and what you're after. Also make sure and use the search feature on this site. There's tons of info! Again welcome!

Walleye and northerns mostly. Around Prairie Portage or maybe Flash, depending on the ice. Is Moose real slushy? I've been camping there before so the weather shouldn't be a problem unless it just gets ridiculously cold.

By the way; thanks thanks thanks guys

      Pop ups have increased for me for a while now.  Timed to cover my usual taps about the time I would tap.

      Abandoned Boat

      By jimmy1045 · Posted

      So there is a boat on a friend's property, has been there for about 4 years, with no contact from owner, and she is unreachable. It was last registered in 2020. Is there any way for him to make it his, legally?

      Birds at home have been quiet and out of sight.  Not sure where they went.  Last year they wouldn’t respond to calls - until they did.  But that will be common until the girls quit being friendly.

      I've seen about 60 turkeys in 1.5 days of hunting thus far.  Unfortunately they are not responding to calls or decoys and the only birds that have walked within range are hens.   It's just a waiting game now.  Deer hunting for turkeys, hoping a legal one walks past before I have to quit in a few days...

      A bunch of webcams available these days to see progress as well:   https://lakevermilionresorts.com/webcams/   Looks to be pulling away from shore. I expect ice out between next Friday and Sunday based on temps in the forecast.  Some sun and then some wind would get it going quickly.

      Well lol, Google is your friend! 🤭     Yes, the 2012 movie "Loon Lake" was filmed in Minnesota. Specifically, it was shot in southwest Minnesota, with locations including Round Lake, Pioneer Village, and Jackson County. The film is also based on a local legend from southwest Minnesota about a witch who lived by Loon Lake.

      Well indeed there is a movie and the trailer will help you near down the 25 lakes a lot by just checking into the Loon Lakes in Southwest, MN.  Should be easy now. Have fun.    Eager to escape the grief and nightmares of the city, Louis Olsen travels to Southwest Minnesota, seeking the peace of the rural countryside. When he accidentally disturbs the grave of a supposed local 'witch' Mary Jane Terlinden, what began as a peaceful reprieve unravels into a haunting nightmare from which Louis cannot escape - but is it all just in his head?

      Great. That's usually a good sign for ice break-up.
