Fishing Report

May 28, 2013

Fishing continues to do well.  Jig and a shiner is the bait of choice.  Wolf, Cass, Winnie, Pike Bay, are all reporting 8 ro 10  feet. 

Weather is still on the cool side, but fish are biting and everyone is having a good time.

See you out on the water.

Good fishing!

Fishing Report

May 21, 2013

Fishing seems to have slowed down with the cooler weather we had yesterday and today.  I know we needed the rain, but a little sunshine would sure be nice right about now.

We are hoping to get more shiners in for the weekend, but it all depends on the weather.  A little warmer weather and some sunshine will make a big difference in the trapping.  We do have shiners in the store, but hope to have a bigger supply for the holiday weekend coming up.  We will try to keep you informed.

The majority of the walleye are still being caught shallow with a jig and a minnow.

Have a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend.

See you out on the water.

Good fishing!

Fishing Report

May 18, 2013

Well, this was more like an opening weekend at the store.  Shiners and rainbows have been the minnow of choice.  We are hearing fish are still shallow, about 5 to 8 feet, with a few being caught as deep as 24 feet.  I think everyone was just glad to get out on the open water.  I guess we will have summer!

Thanks for stopping by at Froggy's.

See you on the water.

Good fishing!

Ice Conditions

May 14, 2013

Warm weather and lots of wind have taken care of most all the ice on the area lakes.  Some still have some ice that has been pushed up on the north shore, but it has all broken up.  Good news!

Ice Conditions

May 13, 2013

Little Wolf,  Midge, Steamboat are all completely open and with the wind and warm day coming tomorrow, I wouldn't be surprised if the bigger lakes will be real close to ice out also.  I would say everything should be open by this weekend.  There really is going to be a summer!

Good fishing

Fishing Report

May 11, 2013

It was a very poor opener, with ice on the lakes and the major rivers closed.  It was really cold and windy too today.  There were very people up fishing and we did not hear any good reports.  It is just too cold for the fish to bite yet.  The wind did help with the ice melt today though.  Little Wold looks like it will be open tomorrow and Midge Lake opened up too. 

Froggy said Allen's Bay on Cass is starting to open up and we are hopint that by next weekend, most or all of the ice should be gone.  Temps are suppose to really improve this week also.

Hand in there, we will have open water eventually!

Thanks for the calls.  We try to keep you as informed as we can and thanks to those guys who braved it up north this weekend, for stopping in at Froggy's.

Good fishing!

River closure

May 9, 2013

The Mississippi River is closed from the Power Dam to Wolf Lake, through May 17th.  Go to the DNR site and see additional river closures as well.  We have been told leeches should be trapping in about 4 to 5 days, as soon as the water temp warms up some.  We're off to a slow start, but we will do the best we can.  Mother Nature holds the controls.

Good fishing!
