Northwest Angle Area Fishing Report- Pre MN Opener






At the Angle, the Minnesota opener is officially "on ice".  This was the last clear satellite image of the lake from last week.  The actual ice-out process is farther along than this shot shows, but we are at least a week out from any real travel on the lake from the mainland.  Flag I. and Oak I. have the only navigable water in our area right now, so the people out there will be able to get some fishing in this weekend.  For those able to get on the water, anchoring up and jigging with minnows around Soldier's Point should be a pretty solid bet.

Northwest Angle Area Fishing Report- Late Ice


It’s been a good winter season, and now it’s time to watch the ice melt at the Angle! We hit the ice a couple of times in April with the snowmobiles and had a great time icing the crappies and walleye. Both the size and numbers were of fish caught were exceptional, which is why we love fishing late ice! As far as the melt goes, the areas with current are opening up, but most of the lake is still encased in a deep layer of ice. It will be with us for a while, definitely past the Minnesota opener!
