Plenty of anglers hit the ice this past weekend and fish were being caught. Here’s where – and the offerings that were getting those fish to bite.
Things have locked up nicely in the Devils Lake basin with the recent cold snap, with ice depths ranging from 5 to 12 inches throughout the system. And the bite?
On Lake Michigan, some decent catches of perch have been reported on minnows when the fish are cooperating.
Ice slow to take hold; crappie bite remains good.
With plenty of open water, the fish are biting – here’s where.
There seems to be plenty of ice-fishing opportunities across the northern half of the state.
Hard water anglers are hoping for some cold weather, which should be the case with winter now officially here.
Many lakes across the state have opened back up again, pushing off ice fishing. But fish are being caught in the open water.
Fishing in a slow spot right now with sketchy ice conditions. But if you still have your boat out, there’s some good open-water fishing to be had.
