Was wondering if anyone has been spearing or fishing on Lake Shakopee up near Mille Lacs?
i used to go there when i was younger but just haven't had the time to get away for a journey up there.
we used to catch decent perch and nice northerns. spearing was fun there! always found a way to come out with a northern over 10 each year. most in that 4-6 range.
so i was wondering if anyone has been up that way recently?
Shakopee is still a very productive fishery.The average size of the pike is much smaller (about 2 lbs), but I did witness a solid 10+ pounder come through the ice last winter. The panfish have been been hit or miss, but lots of them in there. My last trip out I saw hundreds with my camera, but the baramoter had them so negative they didn't even show curiosity in my offerings.
