Ice is
running 18-20 inches thick and is of pretty good quality.
Snow is running 6-8” with some
drifting. There are heaves on the lakes so watch for them
and drive around rather than over. On some lakes access can
be difficult.
Pan fishing
has been pretty decent….
Mostly crappies with an occasional blue gill. Perch bite
has been slow. Walleye bite is fair to good. I have seen
some nice pails of walleye and Northern, a decent number
in the 3-4 lb. range.
Remember:
Ice is always “never safe.”
We have 48 lakes 5-20 minutes from the resort. Walleye bite
is generally a morning or evening bite. Crappie is primarily
evening or low light days. So far Perch has been on the slow
side. Last year perch fishing was really hot but it has not
taken off yet.
If you have any questions, please e-mail me and I will get
back to you same day. Gary and Scott are guiding and the pictures
attached are from this month.
Enjoy and have a Happy New Year!
