That one of your local guides is going on his own. I'll tell you what, this guy is a true sportsman. He encourages c/r on big fish, gives info for nonpaying customers and really seems like a nice guy just to hang with. His new business name rocks and I would recommend him in a heartbeat. I won't spoil his new endeavor, we will just have to hear it from him. Joe

Is this the same rumor that I've heard as well? If so, then you hit the nail on the head. The guy's the consummate professional and a great source of information as well (paid or out of the kindness of his heart). The name of the new business is very cool and people are going to love it.

Book your next fishing adventure with him now because he's going big time soon!

Hey, can you guys give us a hint, for those of us out of town who only get up there a week at a time, I would be lost without this forum or a little guide service. Thanks

Alright alright...

Yep I am starting my own guide service.. I will release the name as soon as I get the website set up and get all the legal things worked out. I am very excited to start this adventure and with working with Fishing The Wildside should make it even more fun... The guide service name is catchy and should give some a good laugh...

Thanks for the great compliments and hopefully better references to future guided trips..

See ya on the water

IMHO, you can't get a better area guide than Beef. He's a very good stick, fun guy to hang out with and he's got some very nice ice fishing equipment to fish out of and use.

Best of luck Beef - and we'll be talkin' soon.

I'm sure you'll do great!

We'll definitely have to meet up on the water this summer if not on the ice yet this winter. laugh.gif

      Very low, probably 2 feet lower than last year at ice out.

      I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:   JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th Brianf. – March 28th Bobberwatcher – April…. MikeG3Boat – April 10th SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st   Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.

      Sturgeon Fishing is Hot

      By LakeofthewoodsMN · Posted

      On the south end...   Lots of ice on the main basin, but it is definitely deteriorating.  Some anglers have been fishing the open water at the mouth of the Rainy River in front of the Lighthouse Gap.  The rest of the basin is still iced over. Pike enthusiasts caught some big pike earlier last week tip up fishing in pre-spawn areas adjacent to traditional spawning areas.  8 - 14' of water using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring has been the ticket.  Ice fishing for all practical purposes is done for the year. The focus for the basin moving forward will be pike transitioning into back bays to spawn,  This is open water fishing and an opportunity available as the pike season is open year round on Lake of the Woods. The limit is 3 pike per day with one being able to be more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. With both the ice fishing and spring fishing on the Rainy River being so good, many are looking forward to the MN Fishing Opener on Saturday, May 11th.  It should be epic. On the Rainy River...  An absolutely incredible week of walleye and sturgeon fishing on the Rain Rainy River.     Walleye anglers, as a rule, caught good numbers of fish and lots of big fish.  This spring was one for the books.   To follow that up, the sturgeon season is currently underway and although every day can be different, many boats have caught 30 - 40 sturgeon in a day!  We have heard of fish measuring into the low 70 inch range.  Lots in the 60 - 70 inch range as well.   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"). Most sturgeon anglers are either a glob of crawlers or a combo of crawlers and frozen emerald shiners on a sturgeon rig, which is an 18" leader with a 4/0 circle hook combined with a no roll sinker.  Local bait shops have all of the gear and bait. Up at the NW Angle...  Open water is continuing to expand in areas with current.  The sight of open water simply is wetting the pallet of those eager for the MN Fishing Opener on May 11th.   A few locals were on the ice this week, targeting pike.  Some big slimers were iced along with some muskies as well.  If you like fishing for predators, LOW is healthy!

      Early bird gets the worm some say...   I have it on good authority that this very special angler caught no walleyes or muskies and that any panfish caught were released unharmed.
