agate reef is a good early season spot. when the mpls fire dept had there fishing tournament there, the winning fish was caught there 7 out of the 10 or so years that we had the tournament at agate bay resort. your depth range is right on, but don't be afraid to try some different depths shallower and deeper. good luck..............tom fellegy

A few years back we pulled rapps off of Agate on opener and had a blast we caught over thirty eyes and a 10lb northern an 3:00 am that was intresting what a battle. we used sinking rapps and trolled 8-12 fow when the rap was barley bouncin of the bottom we had our best luck.

I fished agate reef last year with bobbers in 8ft of water and slaughtered them. and I plan on going back there this opener aswell.

Thanks Tom!!

I'll give Agate a try, around 7am or so I'll probably head to Fischer's. I know quite a few who did well there last year.

If nothing, it's time to hit the Sand.

I know I'm gonna start something but their is only one color chartuse and the rap of choice would be a clown.

Elwood- not the right colors for my boat, Redand brightg pink are my colors choices, for raps I use a white rap or a purple perch color. I have fallin in love w/ them on this lake. I may have to try a clown though... why not.

I don't have any Purple Perch. Time to pick up a few and give them a try.

I dont have the purple perch color also, so you know what its time to add more color to my tackle box, though it will be hard to see it over all that chartuse grin.gif

      As crazy as that might sound, May 18th isn’t a bad guess.  We were on the lake yesterday and had somewhere around 30” of solid ice with some snow on top.  This is hard January-type ice.  No honeycombing, no chipping or slush.  In fact, my Dewalt hammer drill couldn’t take it.  It’s dead.   Another foot of snow on the way this week?  That won’t help.

      Try the area where Minnehaha Falls runs into the river up to the ford dam. I've just used jig and fathead. Been several years since I've fished down there, but saw a lot of people shore fishing there. Pretty snaggy down there.

      Never tried it down there, sounds like fun. Let us know how you did.  👍

      Entries sure rolled in when I offered the case of beer.  We could meet at my Stuntz Bay boathouse if that would work.  Close to the landing, could anchor in front of the boathouse, or could park your vehicle at by the boathouse.  Maybe we could require the winner to be present, LOL.

      Thinking about trying pool 2 (from shore) for the first time tomorrow morning, ideally looking for walleye. Anyone know any decent spots or what kind of baits I should use?   Thanks in advance

      I know the owner.  In fact we rode snowmobiles together a couple days after the fire.  He lost most of his belongings.  Sounds like it was electrical.

      I drove by the spot I thought it was on the snowmobile and couldn't find it.
