Happy New Year. We're in full swing with the guided icefishing and fishhouse rentals. Walleyes have been biting good but with the lack of snow, it has been making for short feeding periods. The panfish are confused and think it's the spring frenzy! The warm temps and lack of snow has them up shallow and chowing down on everything in site. This week has produced some dandy trophy crappies in the 14"+ range. Give us a call today and don't miss out on the "hot bite"!

12/20/11

We have ice! The fishhouses are out on the lakes! The fishing has been pretty good. Walleyes have been biting good, as have the panfish. Have a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and don't forget to book your icefishing adventure!

The Rainy River season is only a few weeks away now!  

02/20/11    

It's been a great stretch of icefishing recently. This weekend was the full moon and the big walleyes were biting. The three days before and after the full are a good way to up your odds, at catching a big walleye. The ice is in good shape and looks like we'll have the houses out for a few more weeks yet. After that we'll be doing late-ice guided trips, ice permitting. Still time and space left to get one last icefishing trip in!
