Fishing has continued to be about the same for the last couple of weeks. They are still getting walleye just before dark and picking through on the perch. I talked to Four Seasons Resort on Winnie yesterday and they said about the same thing. They are getting some walleye at the mouth of the river. Fishing is okay, but not as good as we would like to see it. Hopefully that is yet to come!
Don't forget the big Winter Challenge Fishing Contest out on Cass Lake this coming weekend, the 13th of February. Tickets can be purchased at Froggy's for $30.00 and they will be $35.00 out on the ice the day of the contest. They have $10,000 worth of cash prizes this year and at least 50 prizes worth at least $100.00 each; lots of augers, vexlars, fish houses and much more. This year again, they will be drawing to decide what place each prize goes in, at the Legion in Cass Lake on Friday night. The fire department will also be having their fish fry that evening. The Chamber will also have a couple of raffles going too. It will be a good time for all. Hope to see you there.
We will be plowing off the area the next couple of days. We will be going out from Sailstar Marina and also the Information Center. There will be guys shuttling out people with their gear and portables.
Prizes will be announced out on the lake, after the contest ends. The Palace Casino will also be giving out some prizes after the end of the contest. Contest goes from noon to 3PM. You will be able to get out on the lake after 10AM to get set up.
See you out on the lake!
