February 28-29th,2016

Last evening the Walleye season closed on MIlle Lacs.  Overall the Walleye bite was very good with 13-17″‘ Walleyes and Perch 8-10″.  Large Northern Pike were c/R the last 3 weeks in the shallower areas also.

Out Lybacks/TWP Tournament was a success with all 150 contestants winning really nice door prizes. And the weather couldn’t have been better. Big fish were awarded for the Walleye, Perch, and Tullibee, no one weighed a Northern.

The ice conditions and our landing held up well over the weekend and with the cold weather this week it should stay in good shape for next weekend even if it does warm some.  So far the forecast up here is for low 40’s only.  we are going to wait until the NW wind we have today drops and then will be pulling the majority of houses.

I am going to leave a couple out for Tullibee and Perch in the Tullibee Hole and a couple down in some Northern Pike/Perch spots for the weekend.  It good be a very fun weekend to be out there.  If you want one give us a call.  We will be maintaining roads out there until the as long as ice conditions allow.  Check the report as I will be updating it daily until we close for the season.

Keep a Tight Line!

Today is Tournament day!  150 people are getting ready to have a good day out of our place.

Yesterday fishing was fair . Mostly perch were active during the day with the nicer ones coming from deeper water.  Walleyes activity was mostly on the deeper transitions too.

Alot of fishermen moved up on the shallow reefs late afternoon and wheelhouses hit most of the humps north of Twin Islands and set-up for the overnight bite.

Ice conditions will be fine over the weekend despite the temp going into the mid 40’s up here today and colder weather is ahead. Tonight we actually will be seeing snow so the bite today should be pretty good with the weather change.

i will post results tomorrow.

February 25-26th, 2016

The last two days the bite remained fair with the under slot Walleyes and Perch action was fair also.  Large Northern Pike were C/R in the shallower reefs and north of the islands.

The ice conditions are very good with almost everything that had got wet last weekend froze solid and if you use common sense you can almost drive anywhere out there with the exception of crossing old ice road banks.

Our Lybacks/TWP Tournament is on for Saturday. All entered must register and sign waiver at our office before they will be eligible to win prizes.

This is the last Walleye weekend here on Mille Lacs this season and we will be pulling houses starting Monday.  I will leave a couple rentals out for Perch, Tullibee. and maybe one for Northern Pike and Perch.  We will see how many calls we get.
Keep a Tight Line!
