Minnesota Fishing Guide Service’s Report – 02.07.18
Crappies are being caught suspended over deep water. Look for them in deep holes of 35 feet or more suspended 10-15 feet off of the bottom. Small jigging spoons tipped with a minnow head will do the trick. Glow in the dark or gold has been productive. Northern Pike action continues to be strong around […]

Crappies are starting to head to deeper water, after they have spent a longer than normal vacation in the shallow weeds. I am still catching Crappies in 6-10 ft of water (some never leave) but the easy fish for most people to catch are starting to filter out into the “deep holes” on most lakes […]

Fishing has been steady with the Crappies moving in to the deeper holes in most area lakes. Look for suspended fish anywhere from 20-30 feet down over 35-45 of bottom depth. Using 2 lines, have a Crappie minnow on a glow jig and your second line rigged with a small jig tipped with a wax […]

Crappies are gathering in the deeper holes and can be caught throughout the day because they are in the deep dark water. Look for them suspended with your electronics. Most of the time they are between 5-15 ft off of the bottom in 30 ft or more of water. However, I am still finding Crappies […]

Long lake in Park Rapids is putting out walleyes and some decent Crappies in the 17 to 25 foot depth range. The night bite on Big Sand has also been strong for eater size walleyes in the 30 to 40 foot depth range using glow in the dark jigs and a shiner minnow. For good bluegill […]

Ice fishing is off to a full start in the Park Rapids area! Walleyes, Crappies, Northern Pike even some big Bass are being cut through the ice in the 5 to 12 foot depth range around weed beds. Tip ups with minnows or jigging spoons on a stout jogging rod have been working well. Look […]

Finally a true cold snap to help make some safe ice! Nothing has changed much fishing wise since last week nor will anglers see any true heavy changes in the next couple of weeks other than better ice conditions. While most of the smaller lakes are walkable and even able to support smaller atvs, the […]

The small lakes are finally frozen over for the most part. The ice is not consistent or what I would consider safe. In a week or so, that should be a different story. However, with a little scouting and some common sense, some decent ice for walking on and some active fish through the ice […]

As the small shallow lakes freeze I’m leaning towards the big lakes in the Boat. Ice under 5” is not a good idea. If your in a Boat concentrate on early ice locations and presentations. Just don’t tell the fish you are in a Boat. Lol. Fish the weed lines for walleyes and suspended panfish. […]

Fishing remains good if you can handle the weather. We’ve been catching huge bluegills and crappies in the 15-20 ft range with plastics or jig and Minnow combos. They are once again schooled along old weed lines where they will caught at first ice. Lotsa fish! Lotsa fun! Capt Josh. Minnesota fishing guide service. 218-732-9919. […]
