castindad,yes openings still.Will be posting on American Cancer Society Relay For L:ife events this week.Havent broke down to buy any advertising and will hold off until May 10th to do that.

We mentioned this to a couple local newspapers but I get a lot better results suggesting fish stocking or lack of or doing presason fish report ,stuff like that.

Also we will be giving details to area churches ,electric companies ,and outdoor groups to get some teams.

Anybody wants to give any ideas we really hope we dont have to buy advertising.

Outdoor News and Midwest Outdoors are giving us good plug,mentioned it to couple radio staions locally,no progress with them,but one in metro has plugged it and got us some teams.

Locally not much action,should be good for motels and campgrounds for prefish etc. if every team is traveling.

We have all permits and breakfst banquet ,which is probaly the first fishing banquet around here in years is going really good.This banquet is going to bring a lot of moola to ACS,and a lot of awareness.

Also we are now in contact with a club that is willing to do a raffle{fish house]main prize and will consider that.

I think too now that every team entered is our best advertisement.

Over 10 teams from just this website have joined,seconded by Classic Bass.

Any hints fishermen for a cure.

Minnetonka Man ,thanks.

Also if any teams have a cancer survivor on team just note that on entry form.And if anybody was wondering we have more walleye teams than bass entered and they seem to be coming in consistantly that way.At this time we just wont tell you how many teams.

Will let you know this was advise from another tournament director that gave us that advise.His tournaments fill faster not letting fishing teams know they still have time to enter.

We know of 84 RV sites 4 blocks from downtown with a swimming pool if you need to bring a camper.City water and sewer etc.,brand new facility with big club house .

Minnetonka Man and jason got your entrys today ,15 teams from Fishing minnesota alone,tops so far for web entrys .3 from Tiger Marine,so they lead on pick up form from sponsors.Tom Chervany called from Tribune in Willmar,that will really help.

Any other ideas? thanks

I have a couple of cancer survivors ,one 6 years clear another 13 years,that are non boaters that might fish if someone has a boat.

It seems odd that they used to fish quite a bit ,but was one of things given up,both financially from costs of treating or from lack of energy during the fight.

It just never came back to them.I hope we can get a couple boaters to get them back out again.

Any help? Edit

Got a list of boaters that will take out these two and looks like list is going to grow,thanks guys

I asked around at Mel's and a few other places this weekend and nobody knew about this tournament. I have all the info I need from here, but it might be worth getting the word out there.

Any help would be appreciated,we will give Liz another poster .

We gave notice of this to City Office,as we got lease on shelter,County Hwy,park as we got lease on parking and parks space,Spicer Commercial Club,Motels and Resturants and Sports centers.We also got it in with Convention Visitors bureau,Papers etc.

Who else would or could we tell?

One boat dealer already got us 4 teams.

We are even putting out invites personally which is really working.

I would think that if someone doesnt know about it they simply are ignoring it.

      Nope not me.  May want to go nextdoor and ask around?  
    • smurfy
      Looks to me like Leech brought his chair home!!😅😆
    • Brianf.
      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. .  
    • SkunkedAgain
      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
