Ice Conditions
It’s getting cold now! The bays with no current have been frozen over for well over a week now and the water temperature has dramatically decreased over the past few weeks too. If the temperatures continue to stay cold, which looks promising the lake will soon start to freeze. Today it is 26 degrees, but with the wind-chill 12 degrees. The 10 day forecast looks like it will be in our favor, with no highs above freezing. At this rate we should have a sheet of ice within a week and a good possibility we will be fishing with 12 inches of safe ice sometime between Dec 5-10. Once we get a sheet of ice on the lake, we can build an inch of ice a day when the temperature drops below 5 degrees above or less and even up to 2-3 inches a day when it falls 10 below or more.
The winter ice fishing frenzy is soon upon us and first ice is always the best for trophy walleyes and a fast paced fishing action, so don’t delay, get your reservations in today! We have packages starting at only $175 per person for 2 nights lodging and fishing! We can provide you with some great fun filled affordable vacation options! Take some time and enjoy some winter fun. www.sportsmanslodges.com 800-862-8602
Fishing Report
There has been a few out fishing, but to be honest the cold weather is really starting to set in and not many are venturing out. For those who have ventured out the fishing remains good and limits are still being brought in of walleyes. Most anglers have been fishing between Sportsman’s and the town of Baudette in the river in 18’-22’ using a bright colored jig. The evening bite seems to favor the morning or afternoon bite at this time. We are looking forward to winter ice fishing with an anticipated start date of Dec 6. The summer fishing was unbelievable, we can’t wait for winter!
Snow Conditions
Just a light blanket of snow of less than an inch has shown up in the Baudette, Lake of the Woods area. Get your snowmobiles ready it won’t be long and the over 500 miles of snowmobile trails will be ready to ride. We will keep you posted.
