SCORE,

Coming in the summer of 2007 The Cactus Resort and RV Park will be opening. This resort has full state of the art rooms, with an indoor pool gameroom, laundry facility, and the rooms are complete with 2-3 bedrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen and full bathroom. Unfortunately we are not on the beach, but are within 5 miles of Big Pine Lake.

Also in conjunction with The Cactus Resort and RV Park, we have a full restaurant with a new bowling alley for the kids. Check us out www.thecactusresortandrvpark.com. This site doesn't have anything about the bowling, but you can send us an e-mail or give a call with any questions or booking.

Hey Cactus,

What do you guys charge to put a seasonal on a lot?

I may try and get my folks to move across state to check it out.

Woody,

Thank you for your interest. Our rates for a 2,000 Square foot lot is $2,000.00 for the season.

This not only gets your lot but in addition gives you exclusive access to our brand new INDOOR POOL, HOT TUB, and EXERCISE room, as well as the laundry facilities, bathroom, and all other ammenities in the park.

In addition the park is winterized, meaning that it will be open all year round, with the sewer and water still working (the first park in Minnesota to be winterized), this is only applies if your RV is winterized as well.

If you have any questions or for booking or availability information check out our website at www.thecactusresortandrvpark.com or feel free to drop me a personal e-mail or call.

I thought we weren't supposed to advertise on this site? Got in trouble a few years ago for doing something half this and got booted...

Where have you been hiding? Hardly heard a peep out of you this year. Fishing must have been good, eh?

I graduated and am living down in Long Prairie. Live in an apartment and don't have much of my ice fishing gear down here and don't know where to go. Was up in the DL area this weekend went shooting at the range. Got a new scope on my muzzleloader WOW!! How's fishing Hitman? We should try meeting up sometime this summer got a lake you might be interested in fishing some time.

Family Resort with a good beach. Cedar Crest on White Earth Lake. Good owners Great beach. Swim area is all enclosed and has a deal out there with a slide in the water. Fishing can be done off of the dock they have and you catch walleyes and northerns off of the dock. Great lake to fish and swim in.

Woody,

If you were interested in seeing any pictures of the resort, I do have some that I can e-mail to you. Please keep in mind we are planning on opening in the summer of 2007, so it is not complete, but as you will see from the pictures it will truly be an extremely nice, high class park. Let me know if you would like any additional information

Check out Bad Medicine Resort on the east side of Bad Medicine lake. You won't find a cleaner lake. Scenery is fantastic. Fishings pretty good. Swimming is superb. And Don will make your whole family feel at home.

      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!
    • PSU
      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
