Fishing Report

January 18, 2010

Well, I have been busy keeping roads open to my spear houses. The guys have been getting some perch, some 3 to 5 lb northern and a walleye or two. With all the fronts coming and going, fishing has been on the slow side. There are still some slushy spots, but where I have plowed, the ice is solid and the next few days are going to be really cold, so I think that will help. Hope you will get a chance to come up and get out in an ice shack!

Just a reminder, the Cass Lake Chamber has it's annual fishing contest on Cass Lake on February 12th. Tickets are $35. and we have them at the store. If you buy them on the ice, they are $40. Lot of cash prizes again this year, as well as other prizes worth $100 and more. It's always a fun time.

Hope to see you out on the ice.

Good fishing!

Fishing Report

January 10, 2010

I have been plowing on Pike Bay, Allen's Bay on Cass and on Big Wolf. There is no problem getting around. Fishing has been doing okay. They are still working that 12 to 16 feet for walleye and shallower for the perch. They might not be getting huge amounts of fish, but everyone seems to get enough for a meal anyway. If you can spend a day out in the ice shack and get a meal of fish, what more can we ask for!

Hope you will get a chance to come up to good old northern Minnesota and enjoy some time fishing on the hard water.

Give me a call if you are interested in any ice house rentals, or need some plowing done. If there is any other questions you have, give us a call.

See you out on the lake!

Happy New Year and hope you all had a good holiday weekend. We got dumped on with snow, so everyone has been busy plowing out Friday and Saturday.

After the snow, now we have the cold weather. Fishing has improved, since the front has moved through. Northerns were moving today and walleye were biting. The sun was shining today and with the snow on all the trees and the snow banks all over, it really looked like a good old fashion Minnesota winter. You have to watch for some slush out on the lakes.

Keep those snuggies on!

Good fishing!

Fishing Report

December 31, 2010

We got a good 10 inches of snow last night, so today was spent plowing. County snow plows were out early this morning, so the highways are all in good shape. Sounds like we are going to get some more snow yet tonight, so I am planning to do more plowing again tomorrow.

Fishing has slowed down some, with this front coming through. It just takes a little longer to get a meal of fish. Quite a few people are spending their New Year's weekend out in their fishing shacks.

We wish you all a safe and happy New Year!

See you out on the ice.

Fishing Report

December 26, 2010

Hope you all had a safe, happy Christmas holiday. It was nice to spend some time with the family. It's always fun watching the kids open up presents. We have a venison roast for dinner and in the afternoon, we got two sleeper houses pulled out on the ice on Allen's Bay. The ice is about 16 inches out there.

The walleye are active just after dark in about 19 feet of water and perch are still hanging in about 12 feet. If your getting small perch, you might want to try up a little shallower.

The sun was shining today and it was just great to get out and enjoy some time in the old fish shack!

Sounds like the weather will be nice the next few days. We wish everyone a safe and Happy New Year coming up this weedend!

See you out on the ice!

Fishing Report

Decembe 23, 2010

Cass Lake and Pike Bay are producing some walleye. Mainly an evening bite and some nice perch on Pike Bay in about 12 feet of water. You have to pick through them, but you can get your limit of perch over that 10 inch range.

We have decided to change our hours for this holiday weekend. Friday will still be 7AM to 4 PM, but we will be open from 7AM to 11AM on Saturday, Christmas Day. We have had quite a few people asking if we would be open and that will still give us the afternoon to spend some time with our family and enjoy the Christmas holiday.

Again, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Keep your stick on the ice!

Well the race is on! There are houses and vehicles going out on Pike Bay, Cass Lake and Big Wolf. Average ice is 13 to 17 inches. Fishing is a little slow, but no one is complaining and I think we all are glad to get out and do some fishing!

We will be closing at 4PM on Christmas Eve day and will be closed on Christmas Day. We wish all our friends and family a safe and blessed Christmas Holiday!

Keep your stick on the ice!

Froggy and the gang.
