Great Eight LAKE MILLE LACS East – Lake conditions have improved quite a bit since last week and resorts have had the opportunity to start developing better road systems on most areas of the lake.

Walleye action was probably as good this past week as it has been all winter in many areas, especially during low-light periods. Panfish and northern pike seem to be biting as well.

By most accounts, Sugar Lake near Remer is your typical Cass County bass and panfish lake. Its crappie, bluegill, and largemouth bass populations are strong in numbers and feature some quality fish as well.

Know which jigging to employ when and you’ll reel in more walleyes and panfish this hard-water season.

Take advantage of training opportunities during the long, dark hours spent indoors this time of year.
