Also, follow the link to see our list of experienced and dedicated guides - GUIDE TEAM With that in mind we are in full swing here in the north country. The ice in the bay is good, the travel is great and the fishing has been fantastic. So, we've been running everyday, from our daily guided trips to our sleeper and day fish house rentals, its been busy. Now, we just need to build some ice north of Houghton Point and Long Island, so we can start to delve into some new territory, including Lake Trout spots. Cold seems to be with us, and our fingers are crossed to have the ice move northward. We will keep you updated on that. On ice conditions, we are seeing 12 to 15 inches on our oldest ice, that stretches from Second Landing to the head of the Bay (south of Bono Creek). This is outlines by a line of pack ice that runs across the entire bay. Past this, 8 to 10 inches is the norm, which runs half way down the channel to Long Island and over to half way to Houghton Point off Washburn. North of here the ice is variable, from 1 to 6 inches and EXTREME caution is needed! No ice anywhere north of Houghton, yet. But, even though the ice is still locked into the bay itself, the fishing has stayed pretty consistent for us, on our guided trips and our fish house rentals, and we have been able to stay on some nice fish catches. We have mainly been catching Browns, Coho, Whitefish and a few odd ball species on our trips. Also, the Perch fishing has been good all around the Bay. Typically, we have been targeting the shorelines from the head of the bay all the way up to Washburn for our trips, running into our fish 20 FOW or deeper. Northland Buckshots and Macho Minnows have been our mainstay, but, Pimples are also working good. Greens and Golds have been our go-to colors. Tip with lake shiner parts and or wax worms. If we run into Whitefish or Perch, we have been going to Jigger spoons with chain droppers or small jigs with the same. Trout are even hitting these as well. Perch have been off Second Landing in 14 FOW or deeper, and you have to find holes and or stubbles of weeds to hold the roaming schools to be consistent. Inland waters are doing great, most lakes have a foot or more of ice now. Walleye fishing is starting to slow a bit, but, they can still be caught during low light periods. Basin fishing is what you want to key in on as the fish are slipping to the deeper water now. Bluegill and Crappie fishing has been lake to lake for success. Very weird bite for them, as they seem scattered on a lot of the lakes and no real pattern can be found. But, on other lakes, the fish are on fire and good catches are coming to the ice. Do not forget our new trip available for this winter. BRING YOUR OWN GEAR rate. For those who bring all their own equipment but still want a guided trip we are offering trips at 350 for a full day for up to 4 anglers (no half day option). This is the best rate around for those who have all the gear but just need a little guidance on the ice for the day.
