Kabetogama/Namakan Fishing Report 1/4/09
Happy New Year!
This past week has given us lots of snow, over 10", which is not helping the slush and ice formation problems on our big lakes.
Well traveled areas on Kabetogama and Namakan are packed and travel is not a problem. Trying to get to a favorite spot off the traveled routes could lead to difficult travel in slush.
Pike being taken by spearing enthusiasts and on tip-ups, no big fish noted this past week.
Walleyes are showing up but the best fishing locations for winter are difficult at best to get to, lets hope the lake firms up.
Although the snow has impeded travel on the lake, it has set us up for great land trails.
All the snowmobile riders think the trails are in the best shape they've seen in many, many years.
Groomer operators from all sources are grooming up the trails and keeping them in excellent shape.
The entire northern half of the state has good trails so long trips in between your favorite communities could make for a good weekend.
Want Winter - We Have It!
We will See You Soon -
