Minnesota Fishing Guide Service’s Report – 05.17.18
The panfish are in the shallows and so are the Bass. Nothing but good times catching Bass and panfish on fly rods in the shallows! Look for the spawning beds in the 1-6 ft range. If you don’t have a fly rod, then pitch 1/16 white jigs tipped with a Crappie Minnow or a […]

It’s going to be a good “opening day” bite on most Minnesota lakes this coming weekend. Although walleye is the number one target for most anglers—The Crappies and Bluegills are going nuts just about everywhere—so it’s a perfect “plan b” if needed. They can be found feeding in and around the shallow spawning areas they […]

Wow, if you can get through the snow to the fish, you will catch them. The fish are where they should be. Some are in ultra-shallow water 3-5ft where you can sight fish them down the hole, others are hanging on break lines waiting to head to the shallows to feed. Mid-day fishing has been […]

Fishing is the classic awesome right now! Late ice is obviously going to linger a while yet, and frankly the best panfish bite is yet to come. I’ve been wacking the fish on the NorthLand Tackle Bro Bug and the JB Weevil Lure tipped with a wax worm in anywhere from 4-10 feet of water. […]

Go get those crappies! Snow is melting and that means the masses of Crappies and Bluegills will be getting closer to shallower water. For now I have been finding fish in a variety of depths, but for the most part in the 12-20 ft. range where they have been most of the winter. There is […]

Captain Josh knows where to find the fish this week. The Spring late ice bite has started. Sunfish and crappies are eating like crazy right now trying to nourish developing eggs. Look for them suspended on steeper drop offs just outside the shallow spawning bays they will be eating in when the ice is gone. […]

Fishing is great and will only get better until the ice melts… Just as most ice anglers quit for the year, the action doubles if not triples as the ice starts to free itself of snow. We concentrate on panfish—Perch, Crappies, and monster Bluegills for the rest of the winter. Look for “night bite” Bluegills […]

What works this week, directly from Minnesota Fishing Guide Service. Holy snow batman! Travel is getting a little more difficult now with the deeper snow on the ice, but the fishing is hanging in there! The fish on the shallower lakes are showing some signs of low oxygen levels so concentrate your efforts on the […]

More snow is good for fishing too, this week’s Minnesota Fishing Guide Service’s Report tells us why… New snow has put the blinders on the fish making it nice and dark under the ice. The mid-day Pike bite has been good. All sizes are starting to feed aggressively due to spawning time in a few […]

Mid-winter fishing is in full swing. In a few weeks, things will begin to change rapidly but for now, think deeper water for more consistent Walleye and Crappie fishing. The deep basins are full of Crappies creating good daytime bites in the 25-40ft depth range using small minnows or tiny jigging spoons tipped with a […]
