February 20th, 2018

Starting Sunday evening and thru last evening we received anywhere from 5″-8″ of snow. Today was spent opening up the roads. As of this evening every area we go to is open.  We moved some rental into spots for the weekend, (some requested groups).  So we will spend time getting ready for the snow coming Thursday evening, prepping things for the tournament on Saturday.

Not many have been out the last 24 hours due to the weather. And the few that were out yesterday did not stay long with the weather worsening.

This weekend will be the last Walleye weekend and with the Tournament it should be a busy one.  Hopefully the weather cooperates and everyone stays safe. The Lybacks/TWP rules are attached.    Keep a Tight Line!     Eddy

Sunday as fishermen came off I got a chance to talk to quite a few to see how the weekend really went.  Once again it was about a 50/50 mix from fair to slow.  However the ratio of “keepers” increased again.  Some big Northern were caught in the shallows and some even found some nice Perch.  The “Tullibee Hole” started showing signs of activity with schools upon schools of Tullibee moving thru.  If the “bugs” start hatching down there we might have a bite for them soon.  (That would be nice with the Walleye season closing Feb 25th.)

Today the snow is coming down pretty good.  Right now there is about 3 inches on the level and more is expected, so we will be plowing this week for the weekend. The Lybacks/TWP Tournament is full and on for this coming Saturday.  See attached rules for those that have entered.

All permanents must be ready to pull by Monday morning the 26th.  All wheelhouses with weekly fees will have to be settled up by Sunday Feb 25th.  Those storing for the summer or plan on leaving it awhile longer for Perch, Tullibee, and Northern will have to contact the office and make arrangements by Feb 25th also.  Any permanent house in the storage lot with unpaid storage will be turned into collection and will be billed for the cost of disposal also.

So far this weekend has seen mixed reports of the bite.  Many are sending pictures of nice C/R Walleye to my phone, but some reports are of a slower bite than last weekend,  With the warmer weather and the time of season alot of fishermen with wheelhouses choose shallow this weekend. Fishermen around the Banana Reef area is doing very well, by some of the pictures I’m getting.

Next weekend will be the last Walleye weekend for this season. Starting Monday the 26th, All permanent houses will be coming off the lake.  Wheelhouses that store here weekly will need to let the office know if they are staying longer for Perch, Tullibee, or Northern, storing for the summer with us, or pulling home.  All outstanding balances for all customers will need to be settled also. Any permanent that did not go out and is behind in payments will be turned into collections unless bill is settled by the end of the month.

The Lybacks/TWP Tournament will be held February 24th. It is sold out. See attached rules:
