Sorry I haven't been keeping up on my blog. May flew by and here it is June. The ice went out late. Our first guests had to fish over by the river because that was the only open water on opening day!!! The bay was clear of ice by the 11th of May and the main lake went out on the 15th. In the last couple of years we were ice free by the 19th of April.
We have had a good number of big northerns caught in the bay over the last couple of weeks. Our son Adam got this 42 inch monster in just 2 feet of water over by the river coming in from Little Iron. Jerry Hinkle-Johnson brought in a very nice 38 inch northern off our dock last weekend. As you can tell this is the time of year to get the bigger fish when they are up in shallow water. Surface temperature today was 50 degrees. Still a little cold for swimming.
Adam's father-in-law Jack got the nice lake trout off our pontoon dock. Jack has been up a couple of times since the season open and each time he catches two of nice lake trout in about the same spot. Why change?
We still have some good openings in July. Give us a call if we can help out on your vacation plans, 1-800-552-6351.
