There was a brief shot of the RP, They had to shoot out of their boat for sponsor resons. It made it real tough fishing because we could not get to where the fish were because of having to use the big Ranger boat. But I got R done. It was pretty crazy going through 2 feet of water and churning up mud with that big boat just to get where we did LOL LOL ... We used the RP for the camera man a lot so they could move around and scout spots to fish.. Bruce Mosher drove my RP.. It was a real blast though.. Hope to do it again this summer.

Wiskers, watched you last night, thank you for TIVO. That was an awesome segment, especially after growing up on the red and fishing those stink baits for those big hogs, brought back the memories...great job! I bet it was amazing watching that big ranger plow through some mud and sludge... blush.gifgrin.gifblush.gif

I am waiting for a DVD from them but it will be a while. I have it on DVR but still trying to find a DVD recorder, or VHS.... I will let you know if I get it figured out.

It was a blast but it was soooooooooooooo hot..... We plowed through some major mud to get there.. Seeing that big Motor churing up the bottom of the Red was a bit nerving.. LOL....

It looked HOT, no wind and just one of those sweltering valley summer days, yeah I bet it was something seeing that motor churning mud must have been a little different...great show though!

Hey Thanks BIG... It was one of the hottest days of the summer.. It was pretty odd to be in a boat that chursn mud and my boat parked a few feet away with a BIMI top and camera man in the shade.. LOL....... We could have gotten more and better fish but we could only go so far with that big Ranger boat.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
