Fishing Report
November 11th, 2011
We had a great trip out west to Colorado when we went elk hunting. My brother in law, John Kurth got a real nice 5 X 5. We had about a foot of snow on the ground when we got there and we got another 6 inches that night. John shot his bull on opening day. We hunt at about 10,500 feet of elevation and with the amount of snow the animals moved down in elevation. The rest of us did not even see anything but we still had a great time on the mountain.

This weeks featured angler is my good friend, John Phillips. He is pictured here holding our limit of walleyes. We were fishing with a jig and minnows in 25 to 35 feet of water. We stayed on and off the rock humps to get them. The water temperature was 56 to 58 degrees, but with the recent warming trend, the water has been warming back up a little each day. The colors in the trees are at their peak right now and some leaves are starting to fall. This will be my last report of the season, as I am heading to Colorado on the seventh, for my annual elk hunt. If I am lucky enough to get one I will post a picture of it. I want to thank everyone and I hope to see you again next year.
September 28th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Brian Findlay, and his buddy Jeff. They are pictured here with their nice stringer of fish. The northerns were caught on blacktail chubs. The walleyes were caught on the large fathead minnows in 20 to 30 feet of water. The water temperature is around 59 degrees. Monday and Tuesday and today we were around 65 degrees but by Friday we will have a high of 48 degrees, with frost expected for Saturday morning. The walleyes are starting to move out to the deeper water as our water temperature keeps going down. Vertical jigging on the deeper rock humps is going to be your best bet to be successful on walleyes, as mother nature tells us that winter is coming. We are about 50 percent color on the trees and it is getting just beautiful out there.
September 21st, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Don Mularkey and Gary Lynn. They are shown here with their nice stringer of northerns and bass. They were all caught on blacktail chubs. Northern and bass fishing has still been pretty good, but if your looking for walleyes they have been a real challenge. Our water temperature is around 61 degrees now. We got up to 55 degrees today with some off and on rain. We are supposed to get to 38 tonight and have a high of 45 for tomorrow. It is supposed to be 53 for Friday and then low in the 60 s for Saturday and Sunday . For you walleye guys, I would start fishing the fall patterns. Try fishing the deeper rock humps and holes.God luck!
September 21st, 2011
Pictured here is Don Mularkey with his 39 inch musky. he caught and released. As you can see it was a beautiful warm day.
September 16th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Mike Heppe, Paul Bohn and Dave Bartelt(Dave is missing from the picture). They caught a great stringer of northerns. These fish were caught on blacktail chubs. Walleye fishing has still remained real tough. Our weather has been October-like since Monday. We had our first trace of snow on Wednesday and set a new record lows for Thursday. We have had 15-20 mile per hour winds also in the last two days. We are supposed to finaly level off for the next 5 days, with highs in the low 60s. The water temperature has dropped 7 degrees in the lst three days. We need the weather to level off before the fishing will get better for those walleyes but the northern and bass fishing has been pretty good in spite of the cold.
September 7th, 2011
Here is just one more picture for this week.It is my grandson, Ethan. He hung in there all day fishing for several different species . He caught this nice eighteen in small mouth bass pictured here. He had a very nice sized crappie and also a small nothern along with the blue gills we caught. He had a great day on the water and learned a lot.
September 7th, 2011
I also spent time last week with my daughter, Tina and her husband, Greg and my two grandsons, Ethan and Ryan. We casted artificial baits and caught a few northerns. We went blue gill fishing and caught a bunch for another fish fry. We have been pretty cool for Sunday,Monday and Tuesday morning, at 38 degrees. We are supposed to get to the mid 70 s through Sunday with a low of 50 at night. This more stable weather should make fishing better than it has been.
September 7th, 2011
The summer is starting to wind down, schools starting and fall weather patterns are sneaking in . This last week I fished with family. Pictured here is my grand-daughter Hayley and my grandson, Jesse. We had a great time fishing for blue gills. We caught a bunch and then had a fish fry with the family.
September 1st, 2011
This weeks anglers are the Oxford Outlaws. They are Don Mularkey, Art Ford and Gary Lynn. As you can see they hit the right day for fishing. We were using a jig and minnows in 10-16 feet of water. The water temperature is still around the 70 degree mark. Fishing has been still pretty tough about half the time as we keep getting these big tmperatures changes, followed with cold fronts. We are supposed to get up to near a record temperature of 88 degrees. There are storms coming Friday with a cold front coming in. Sunday should be in the 60s. We had 65 degrees for the highs yesterday, so you can see our roller coaster weather changes make fishing a real challenge on some days . Have a great labor day week-end and stay safe.
September 1st, 2011
Pictured here is Gary Lynn with this twelve pound 37 1/2 inch northern.
August 25th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Rose Rivard and Judy Smernoff.Pictured here is Rose holding their nice catch of walleyes with one northern. These fish were caught on a jig and minnows. It seems too early for the walleyes to be hitting on minnows, but that is what is happening. Crawlers still work but minnows are working bertter. The water temperature is 70 degrees on most lakes. We had a cold front move through yesterday and I expect fishing to be tough for the next 2 days. With another cold front coming again on Friday. That is the pattern we have been in for the last month. These cold fronts come in about every 3 or four days making it real tough fisning about half the time.
August 17th, 2011
This weeks featured angler is my good friend ,John Phillips. We had a great day on the water, as we limited out on walleyes , as you can see here. We were using crawlers and minnows and the minnows worked better than crawlers. We were fishing in 8 to 12 feet of water on the weed edges. The cold front that came in last week on Saturday and Sunday made for some tough fishing. Otherwise, fishing has been pretty good. We are supposed to get to the mid 70 s right through the weekend and the high 50 s at night. With the more stable weather I think the fishing will remain pretty good for this weekend. Pan fishing has been very good and the northerns have been going also.
August 10th, 2011
This weeks anglers are Tyler Cappaso, and his grandfather, John Hornyak. They are shown here with their stringer of fish. We were using a jig and blacktail chubs in 8 to 14 feet of water. The water temperature now is around 75 degrees. Fishing last weekend was fantastic, but I am afraid that is going to change for this weekend. We had a cold front come in last night and we were 48 degrees this morning. We are supposed to be around 70 degrees for a high through Monday. I think this much of a weather cange is going to make it a real challenge for the next few days. The water tmperature is going to drop every day.
August 3rd, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Greg Martin and Steve Rysyk. They are pictured here holding their mixed bag of fish. Crawlers are working better for walleyes right now. Blacktail chubs and in- line spinner baits are working for northerns. The blue gills and perch are biting really good. The muskys have been very active in these 80 degree days. The water temperature is in the mid 70 s. We are supposed to get low 80 s through Friday and be in the high 70 s for this weekend. We had some pretty good storms come through yesterday but there are none predicted for the next 5 days. No matter what your fishing for, the fishing should be great this weekend.
July 27th, 2011
This weeks anglers are the Polens. Rob and his dad, Harry, are pictured here with a nice stinger of fish. We were using blacktail chubs right up in the weeds. We had great weather this last weekend, but this up-coming weekend is supposed to be into the high 80s again. The water temperature is around 76 degrees on most lakes. For the walleyes, crawlers are working better than minnows. We keep getting thunderstorms about every 3 days and the day after the storms, the fishing has been a real challenge. The rest of the time fishing has been pretty good.
July 27th, 2011
Rob and Chad Polen are shown here with their blue gill catch. Chad out fished his older brother, Rob, and they had a great time fishing together.
July 20th, 2011
This weeks anglers are Steven and Lance Bailiod, shown here with their nice stringer of fish. It has been hot and hotter here , as you know. The walleyes are hitting on the crawlers now. The water temperature is rising steadily. It is in the high 90 s today and Thursday and mid 80 s for Saturday and Sunday. If you are pan fishing the bluegill and perch, they are going good right now. Northern fishing has been so-so but for you musky anglers, you will be pleased to know that they have been very active. If you can stand the heat, the fishing is been pretty darn good.
July 13th, 2011
This weeks anglers are the Findlay family. Brian,Kierra and Annette got a bright sunny day to fish with me. The mid-day fishing was a great challenge. Early morning was the best time to be on the water. It was a special day for me as it was the first time I have had the pleasure of fishing with Annette since Kierra was born.. Kierra is cute as a button, isn\'t she? The weather is great here, but the temperature is starting to climb, for the weekend. It is supposed to be 85 for Saturday and the high 90s for Sunday. Crawlers are working the best for the walleyes right now.
July 6th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are the Oxford outlaws pictured here. Gary Lynn, Don Mularky and Don Van Swol. These veteran anglers have more fun fishing together, than even they can stand. We were fishing with a jig and medium size blacktail chubs. We were fishing fishing right in and on the weed edges. The fishing was great last week, up until Friday when we had 90 degrees and 90 percent humidity. It was great weather for the 4 th of July weekend. It was 85 degrees and very little wind, but it was not too good for fishing. We are supposed to be around 80 degrees all week and back up to 85 for the weekend. I think for the next 5 days it will be tough out there. I plan on trying to be on the water at 5 a.m. as those first 3 or 4 hours are going to be your best chance for success.
June 30th, 2011
Our featured angler today is Chuck White who is pictured here holding our days catch. We were fishing on the deeper weed edges in 15 to 20 feet of water. We were using a jig and redtail chubs. We are supposed to get to 90 tomorrow and the low 80s right through the weekend. The water temperature is around 70 degrees,but will be warming up everyday with hot days coming up. The new moon is on the 1 st of July and with the steady warm temps, I expect the fishing should be very good for this 4 th of July weekend. I would get out there early in the morning though, as it will get pretty hot by noon. Have a great 4 th of July weekend, and be safe out there, as there will be a lot of folks on the water.
June 27th, 2011
This is Mike Heroux and his brother,Tom, shown here with their catch of the day. All these fish were caught on a jig and minnows. We are still having better luck with minnows than crawlers. The same pattern of fishing on the weed edges is still working for us. The small mouth bass are going too, as Mike caught two 20 inchers and released them. We are to get some rain this afternoon and tonight with the mid 70 s forecasted for tommorrow and the low 80 s for Wednesday and Thursday.
June 22nd, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Rose Rivard and Judy Smernoff. We were using a jig and minnows. We were fishing on the weed edges and even right in the weeds, where weed growth is not yet very thick. The water temperature is about 65 on the bigger, deeper lakes and around the 70 degree mark on the smaller lakes. It\'s very odd, but on some lakes, when going for walleyes, minnows work better than crawlers and on some other lakes, crawlers are the bait of choice. Northern fishing has been productive using large blacktail chubs or throwing some crankbaits. We are getting some rain in the next few days, but this weekend looks like it will be very nice weather.
June 14th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers, are Milton Stuewe Jr. and his grandson Austin. We were using redtail chubs on a jig. We were fishing right in the new weed growth, in about 8 feet of water. The weather is finally supposed to level off a little for the rest of the week. It is to be about 72 degrees for Thursday and 75 for Friday and the high 70s for Saturday and Sunday. There is a possibility for a little rain today and Sunday. The water temperature now is around the 70 degree mark. For you pan fisherman, the cold weather we had last week shut the crappies right off. With the upcoming steadier temperatures, I expect them to get hot again. The bluegills are still not on the beds yet but are getting close. The perch are going real good right now. For you musky hunters, twice this week we were bringing in a walleye and Mr. Musky took it away.
June 8th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Brian and Dave Findlay, who are shown here with there catch of the day. These fish were caught on a jig and redtail chubs. We had a front come in Friday, which slowed down the fishing for Saturday, Sunday and Monday. We had 88 degrees today then another big front is coming in tonight . We are only supposed to get to 65 tomorrow and 60 with a low of 38 for Friday. This rollercoaster change in weather will probably make fishing a real challenge for this weekend. The water temperature now is around the 70 to 72 mark. I\'ve been try ing crawlers but minnows are still working . I expect them to start on crawlers in the next week or so.
June 2nd, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Kathryn Gilbertson and Joel Bornitzke. Here they are, shown with their days catch. These walleyes were all caught on a jig and minnow. The water temperature is 60 degrees on almost all lakes, as we have had nothing but cool days and nights. The new weed growth in spots, is where we have been most productive. The problem is finding those spots. We are supposed to get up to 80 degrees on Friday and be in the mid70s for this weekend. With the new moon tonight, and the up coming warming trend, I expect the fishing to be excellent. For you panfish anglers, it should be fantastic this weekend, especially for crappies and blue gills.
May 25th, 2011
This weeks featured angler is my good friend, John Phillips. He is shown here with our limit of walleyes. These fish were all caught on a jig and fathead minnows. We did try crawlers, but they still are after the minnows. The water temperature is in the high 50s to low 60s on most lakes. The weed growth is still minimal. We have been below normal temperatures, with a lot of rainy days. It is supposed to be around 65 degrees for Saturday and Sunday with the possibility of some rain. We have a frost warning for Thursday and Friday morning. If you are coming up this weekend dress warm and have a great Memorial weekend.
May 18th, 2011
This weeks featured anglers are Mike Heppe and Dave Bartelt. As you can see we had a great day on the water. All these fish were caught on a jig and fathead minnows. We were fishing in the areas of new weed growth. The water temperature is around 53 degrees. We have a full moon right now, and our temperature is supposed to get a little warmer each day. We are supposed to get to 66 degrees today and be in the low 70s for Saturday and Sunday.There is a possibility of rain, on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I hope all of this comes true,as it would be nice not to wear insulated underwear to stay warm!
May 18th, 2011
Last Saturday we had the 2011 Tadpole Memorial Classic Fishing Tournament. It was in honor of our good friend Tommy Tadpole Zinda, who passed away a year ago. Mother nature did not cooperate very well, with a high temperature of 44 and 20 to 30 mile an hour winds and some rain. In spite of the weather it was a privelage to fish in a tournament bearing his name. We all had a nice time. Dave Lang Jr. had the biggest northern and Jeff Lang had the biggest walleye. Yours truly, and my fishing partner, Al Johnson had the heaviest team weight. We had a fish fry after the tournament. A special thanks goes out to Dave Lang for organizing this event.
May 11th, 2011
Family Season Opener Weekend: Mother nature sure gave us some nice weather for the season opener. The fishing was real good. Pictured here is my son-in-law, Greg Garrison,brother-in-law,John Kurth,step-father, Al Johnson, brother, Harlon and my son,Nick. We had real good luck as you can see. We were fishing with a jig tipped with fathead minnows. the bite was very suttle, so you had to give them some time to suck it in. The nothern action was not so good. We are supposed to get up to 75 degrees today with thunder storms coming tonight. Rain is in the forecast right through Sunday with a cool down for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Fishing should remain pretty good for this weekend, if we don\\\\\\\'t get any big cold fronts, with the rain. The water temperature is around 50 degrees on the smaller shallower lakes but the deeper big lakes are about 42 degrees.
May 11th, 2011
Pictured here are guys with our shore lunch.MMMM...good!
May 2nd, 2011
Hello,I know you anglers are as excited about getting back on the water this week-end as I am. If you can believe the weather forecast, we are supposed to be around the 55 degree mark, with a little rain on Saturday and Sunday. The ice went out on the bigger lakes just last week. I believe that fishing this opening week-end, should be pretty good. With the new moon coming on the 3 rd of May and late ice out, the conditions are good for early walleye action. Good luck to you, and I will let you know how we did next week.
October 25th, 2010
Hi Friends, I wanted to let you know how we did hunting elk in Colorado. I hunt with my brother in law, John Kurth, my stepdad, Al Johnson and a friend, Tom Raatz. We were real lucky this year as Tom shot a cow and Al shot a six by six bull and I shot a six by six also. Here is a piture of my elk. Hope to see you next summer.
October 6th, 2010
The above pictured northerns made for a happy Rose and Judy, but topping off the day, was this bonus fish that Rose caught and released. This was a nice musky. The shoreline was beautiful, with the trees about at the peak of color. In some places the color is past peak and leaves are starting to fall. I would guess that by next week, at this time, half the trees will be bare. Thanks again, and I wish you well.
September 29th, 2010
This weeks featured angler is my good friend, John Phillips. We had a great day on the water, as we caught our limit of walleyes. All these fish were caught on a jig and minnow, in 25 to 30 feet of water. The water temperature now, is around the 56 degree mark, and the walleyes are around the rock humps and deeper holes . We are supposed to get up to the low 60 s today, and for Thursday and Friday, 55 degrees, and for Saturday and Sunday to be in the high 40 s. The colors are almost at their peak right now and it is beautiful out there. We have been doing good on the northerns as well, using 6 inch suckers.
September 22nd, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are Rob Polen and his Dad, Harry, pictured here with their nice stinger of northerns. All these pike, were caught on 6 inch suckers. We had some pretty cool days last week, with rain. They are predicting the mid 50 s and low 60 s through the weekend and heavy rain with 2 to 4 inches on Thursday and Friday into Saturday. The water temperature is still around the 61 degree mark and the leaves are changing color, and some are falling already. The weeds are starting to fall down on the lakes and I think the water temperature will stay about the same for the next week. We are still getting some walleyes on the deeper weed lines as well as the 25 to 35 foot rock humps. For you musky hunters they are getting more and more active everyday.
September 15th, 2010
This weeks featured angler is Gary Lynn, shown here with his nice walleye catch. About half of these walleyes were caught on a jig and crawler and the other half a jig and minnow. The water temperature is around the 61 degree mark They are starting to get into the fall pattern of going deep. I think minnows are the way to go as our weather will keep cooling that water down. We had scattered frost in our area the last two mornings. We had a high of 52 today with rain. We\'ve got more rain coming tonight and a high of 60 for tommorrow and Friday as mid 50 s for this weekend are predicted with the mid forties for the nights.
September 9th, 2010
This weeks featured angler, is my good friend John Phillips. John and I had a great day, as we limited out on walleyes. We got 6 of these walleyes on the deeper weed edges with a jig and a crawler. The other four fish we caught, were in the deeper rock humps, on a jig and minnow. The water temperature now is around the 68 degree mark. Last week was a tough week for walleye fishing, as we had cold front, after cold front, coming in. I only had one good day, and that was with John. The weather is to level off and be a little more stable for the rest of the week. It is supposed to get a little warmer everyday, starting today. It is still going to be pretty cool, even though we will have a high of 60 degrees for Wednesday, and 65 for Thursday and 68 for Friday and Saturday, it feels like October out there but I feel fishing should be pretty good for the remainder of this week.
September 1st, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are Tom Rausch and his grandson, Nick, pictured here. We had a real good day but since then, the fishing has been very tough. Crawlers are still working, but minnows are starting to work. I feel that fishing is going to remain pretty tough for this weekend because a big cold front is coming into our area. We are supposed to get up to 75 today and by Friday only be in the high 50 s. The water temperature is around the 74 degree mark and I expect the water temp to drop about 5 degrees in the next 5 days. For you panfish anglers, the blue gills and perch have been biting very well. Have a great Labor Day weekend.
August 25th, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are the Oxford Outlaws. Gary,Art,and Dick, pictured here with their stringer of fish. We were fishing with a jig and crawlers just off the weed lines. The water temperature is around the 75 degree mark. We are supposed to only get up to 65 today and get a little warmer each day and back into the 80 s again for this coming weekend. With the full moon right now and clear skies predicted right through this weekend, I expect the fishing for will be a little tough in the next 5 days. Try to be on the water early and fish later in the evening, for the best chances of doing well.
August 18th, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are, John Hornyak and his grandson Tyler. A jig and crawler on the weed edges is still the bait of choice. We are starting to cool down a little from the high 80s, in the last two weeks, to the mid 70s. We are supposed to be in the 70\'s through Saturday and 80 on Sunday. We still have been getting a little rain about twice a week, accompanied with a cold front. With each of these cold fonts, the next day the fishing has been a little slower, but the next day, the fishing has been pretty good. The pan fishing has been real good as guys have been bringing in some good catches of blue gills as well as perch. The northern and musky fishing has been pretty tough.
August 12th, 2010
I had the privilege of fishing with 3 generations of the Phillips family. Kyler, John, and Kevin Phillips, are pictured here with their very nice stringer of walleyes. As you can see, the angling skills are being passed on through each generation. Kyler, on this particular day, had out-fished his Dad as well as his Grandpa. Well done Kyler! We are still using nothing but jig & crawlers , right on the weed edges. The water temperature is still around the 77 degree mark and we have been HOT & HOTTER. We are supposed to get to 88 degrees today and 80 for Friday and Saturday and finally cool down to 70 for Sunday through Wednesday.
August 4th, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are, Jeff Van de Velde and his dad, Jerry. They are pictured here with there stringer of fish. We are still using nothing but a jig and a crawler. The walleye fishing has been kinda tough, as well as the northerns have been tough also. The small mouth bass and the large mouth bass have been very good. We have been real hot and the water temperature is hovering around the 77 degree mark. We are supposed to be in the high 70 s to the low 80 s, right through this weekend. We have been getting a little rain about twice a week and the weather fronts keep coming in , which has made musky fishing pretty good on certain days.
July 28th, 2010
Hi folks, this week\'s featured anglers are Bob Meicher and Charles Poches. At right, they are holding their stringer of a mixed bag of fish. We had a great day on the water. We are still on the summer pattern, of a jig and crawler, right in and on the edge of the weed lines. The water temperature is around the 75 degree mark. We are still getting our fair share of rain which is still welcomed. We have been in a severe drought up here in the northwoods, for some time now. Small mouth bass fishing has been just fantastic in the last week or two. Northern fishing has still been tough. We are supposed to be in the 70s for this weekend with some rain on Friday night into Saturday morning.
July 21st, 2010
This weeks featured anglers are Dave Bartelt and his Grandson, Dave. Pictured on the right is Dave Sr. We had a great day on the water, with Dave Sr. catching and releasing this beautiful 22 inch small mouth bass. We were using a jig and crawler, fishing the deeper weed lines. Crawlers still seem to be the bait of choice, however, leeches have been working also.
July 21st, 2010
Pictured here are the two Daves. Dave III is holding his 22 inch walleye, which he realeased.I am surprized it it is not illegal to have this much fun. For you northern fisherman the fishing has been kinda tough. Musky fishng has been on and off , as we have had scattered thunderstorms, about every other day. The water temperature is around the 75 degree mark. We are supposed to be in the mid to upper 70 s through this weekend. There is a chance of rain on Thursday and Friday.
July 14th, 2010
This weeks featured angler,is my good friend, John Phillips. He is holding his nice catch of walleyes.These fish were caught on a jig and crawler. The deeper weed edges, have been the best producers, around the 15 foot depth range. We are supposed to be in the low 80\\\\\\\'s right through the weekend with some strong storms on Wednesday afternoon and evening. The water temperature is around the 75 degree mark. The muskys have been real active and you see them up on the surface , what I call sunning themselves everyday.
July 7th, 2010
This week, pictured on the right, is Judy Smernoff. We had some pretty fair days fishing despite the heat. Crawlers as well as leeches are both are working. The water temperature is around the 73 degree mark and rising. These fish were all caught right at the weed lines.
July 7th, 2010
Here is the second picture for the week. This is Rose Rivard, Judys fishing partner. We had a good walleye day....as you can see.We have been hitting the water very early and getting the best results then.It has been real warm and humid all week and is supposed to be in the high 70s right through until Sunday with rain Thursday and Sunday. For you pan fish anglers, the gills have been real hot. They have been suspended in 15-20 feet of water about 6 feet down.
June 13th, 2010
We have a future angler, as an addition to our family, Odin Hawke. He is the son of our daughter ,Katie and her husband, Michael Hawke. He was born Wednesday June 9 th. Grandma and Grandpa are happier than a walleye in a minnow tank.
May 18th, 2010
At the Tadpole Classic this year John Phillips caught the biggest fish, John Kurth caught the biggest walleye and yours truly caught the most walleye. Mother nature gave us a beautiful day for the tournament and I would like to think Tommy was watching us, as we mourned and celebrated his life. We were priveleged to know him. We love you man!
May 18th, 2010
My good friend, Tadpole Tommy Zinda lost his battle with cancer last Wednesday, May 12,2010. He will be greatly missed by all of us. Six years ago we started the Tadpole Classic fishing tournament. It is a get together of friends and relatives of Tommy and his guides. We have a relaxed day on the water, in friendly competition, where we fish and then clean our catch, and have a big fish fry.
April 28th, 2010
Welcome back anglers for another opening weekend of fishing. We are supposed to be in the high sixties with maybe some rain for Saturday. We could use some soaking rains as it is very dry up here. For you flowage anglers, the water levels are about the same as last fall and some landings are unusable. The Willow and the Rainbow both have a 2 walleye limit this year, so check the landings for the legal limits. The ice went out very early this year,about the last week in March, so this years opener is going to be a lot different than normal years. I got a feeling that walleye fishing will be a real challenge this year. Good luck anglers and I will let you know how we do in my next posting.
