Price County Fishing Report 1-07-13
Anglers fishing in our area are reporting mixed success. Northern pike have been active in shallow water especially near weed beds. Medium to large shiners have had the most action. English bait rigs similar to quick set rigs have positive results versus single trebles.
Walleye anglers are fishing depths from four to twelve feet. Medium size fats rigged on tip-ups and small Swedish pimples tipped with small fats aggressively jigged are also providing action. Some action has taken place in the afternoon but the majority of the walleye bite is at dusk.
The weather predictions for this week are for warmer than normal temps so anglers fishing current areas should take caution. Most lakes have ten inches of ice and there is vehicle traffic on some. With the warmer temps it’s a good idea to check the ice before driving vehicles out.
