12/26/2013 4:05:00 PMWeather has been up and down here in the Northwoods a bit lately. High pressure and low temps (-9 to -20 degrees last night) put fish and anglers not in a good mood to bite or fish. Windows of opportunity spring up. Monday’s higher temps, lower barometer and better fishing follows. Pike: Good-Very good. Big suck...

12/26/2013 4:00:00 PMMerry Christmas & Happy New Year to all... The snow is piling up on the lakes and travel conditions are becoming an issue when it comes to getting to local ice fishing hotspots, but angers are still proceeding onto the ice and with that, they are doing quite well. The walleye bite has continued to be very good at nighttime with some d...

12/23/2013 1:50:00 PMWith all the family Christmas get togethers, I didn't make it on the ice this week at all but Customers are reporting a slow walleye bite with the best bite being right at dark. Golden shiners are the preferred bait right now. Anglers are split about 50/50 on using treble hooks or a wide gap single hook. I like using a number 2 wide gap G...

12/23/2013 1:45:00 PMThe Hayward area enjoyed mild temperatures (20-degree range) and continuing snowfall over the weekend, with just enough to shovel and make for ‘iffy’ driving conditions.

12/22/2013 12:55:00 PMSmall villages are starting to form on the local lakes.

Ice thickening. Large lakes such as Trout, Fence have 8” (safe for A.T.V.) mos...

12/11/2013 7:25:00 PMSteve Suman North Wood’s weather remains cold and windy, with some nasty wind chills in the making. Forecasts indicate little reason to expect relief in the near future, and every slight (very slight) rise in temperature seems to bring falling snow. Read the temperature predictions closely – it can be difficult to differentiate between...

12/9/2013 4:05:00 PMThe snow and cold weather conditions kept some fishermen off the ice, but the fishermen that did venture out on the ice found some great Walleye, Pike, and Panfish action! Even with the heavy snow fall mid week the sub zero temps have pushed ice thickness from 7 to 10 inches in most areas and reports of ice thickness close to a foot have ...

11/27/2013 8:55:00 PMSteve Suman Opening weekend of deer season brought cold temperatures and stiff winds to the North Woods. The Packer-Viking game Sunday afternoon provided some hunters an ‘excuse’ to exit the woods early in the day, though tie games offer little satisfaction and many hunters might have wished they had endured the day in the tree stand. ...
