2/12/2014 9:15:00 PMFishing has continued to stay somewhat slow overall. Fish are being caught, but you're working for each and every one of them. Warmer temperatures are forecasted, and I'm hoping things will turn around and start a steady bite again. Things will only go up from here. When it comes to catching crappies and walleyes, one typically targets them ...

2/12/2014 9:05:00 PMWith most mornings starting off in the double digit/below zero mark (17-23 below the last four mornings) participation in the ice is down quite a lot. Fishing was understandably slow due to cold and high pressure system hanging over our area. Lack of wind made things bearable during the day as temps warmed up to 7-14 degrees above by mid aft...

2/12/2014 8:30:00 PMIf your venturing out on the lakes, make sure that you know where you are going if traveling with any wheeled vehicle. The heavy snow cover and pockets of slush have made it almost impossible for anything but foot and snowmobile travel. Hopefully warmer temps in the forecast will settle the snow down a little on the lakes and make travel a ...

2/9/2014 10:10:00 AMI wanted to provide some background information on just how this season’s opening day compared to opening day in past seasons that had similar regulations. Most notably the 6-hour season was initiated in 2002, so I compared this year’s opening day harvest to opening days since 2002. The attached document shows the average ...
