Category Archives: Fishing & Ice Report

January 22nd, 2025

Yesterday and overnight, there were mixed reports from those out there. Some did not have too much action and some C/R over the slot Walleye. With the weather changes coming, the bite will improve over time.  We have been moving some rentals into new areas and will see what happens.

We still have two 4-person deluxe houses and two 2-person deluxe houses available this coming weekend. Permanents should call 24 hours in advance for services or arrivals.

The ice is in good shape, with well over 20″ in most places.  There are no cracks or pressure ridges in the areas we go to. Wheelhouses coming for the weekend should call and get on our list. In most cases, there will be no need to plow spots. There are drifts out there, and they are hard, but there are also a lot of open areas. It would be good to have chains, just in case. We will focus on the main roads and driveways this coming weekend.

Keep a Tight Line!

This morning’s temperature was -22 degrees. But a slow warmup will start today, and temperatures will be above zero by evening.  It looks like our cold weather is over for awhile.  I expect fishing to pick up some as the barometer changes over the next few days.

We started our weekend wheelhouse list today. If you are planning on coming out this weekend, call ahead to get on it. You will save $5.00/day on wheelhouse access fees for Fri-Sun.  Otherwise, it is $20.00 per calendar day at any other time or if you are not on the list.

We will move some rentals to new spots over the next day to prepare for the weekend. At this time, we still have two 4-person deluxe rentals and two 2-person deluxe rentals available for this weekend. Call our office for details.  Permanent customers and seasonal wheelhouse customers, remember to call 24 hours ahead for any services or arrival times.

We are looking forward to a great weekend out there!

The temperature was -22 degrees this morning, with a light NW wind. Fishermen out overnight had mixed results, but for the most part, it was pretty quiet. A couple of vehicles had to start p[problems, but for the most started up. Especially those that started and fully warmed up their rigs a couple of times overnight. The last cold night will be tonight, and a slow warmup will begin for the weekend.

We will be moving some more rentals again this week, as we did last weekend, and will be trying some new spots in areas we go to. The Perch size is slowly improving, especially in the size caught. There are still plenty of smalls in the mix, but the overall average size caught is improving.  I will post the weekend pictures on Facebook this evening.

Warmer days are coming!
