Good morning from the Quiet Lakes, we did not get as much rain as was first predicted for today. High temps yesterday hit almost 70 which knocked down almost all the snow down aside from the plow piles. The weather looks to stay in the 30s and 40s this week with a slight chance of minor snow on Wednesday. The ice is still in good shape although the shorelines will start going away rapidly at this rate. It sounds like the sheets of ice on the lakes are still 20-24″ thick.
About the only thing I have heard for fishing is that crappie are still basin related and schooled up thick when anglers find them. Jigging spoons and crappie minnows seem to be working best right now. There are perch mixed in as well. Bluegill have been small on average and anglers are finding them in shallow water close to weeds.
Sorry for the dismal report but there is very little fishing being done right now and it’s going to be a slow month and a half until opener I feel.
