Kabetogama-Namakan-Ash
River Fishing Report 2-5-12 Where do these weeks go and this March like weather come from. Week after week of mild temperatures is sure favoring the ice anglers.
The 30 degree weather hasn’t phased the ice conditions for anglers and sleds, still a good ride, minimal slush and good load bearing clear ice.
Anglers doing well
with tip-ups enhanced by nice weather. Pike biting
on all offerings, some walleyes showing they aren’t so finicky taking small suckers.
Walleye action
has been decent overall, many in the protected slot being released with a few keepers along with nice perch and an occasional sauger being caught. Minnow and small jig made a good offering in 28-32’ of water. Late afternoon bite into early evening has remained consistent over the last few weeks.
The most popular
areas for fishing success have been short jaunts off the ice road that runs from the Kab Visitor Center to the Ash River Visitor Center.
For snowmobilers, several businesses in the Kabetogama, Ash River, Littlefork and International Falls areas are sponsoring the Worlds Longest Poker Run, in fact you can start here for your first card.
Land Trails still holding snow as of this writing, not a bad ride. The lake trails have been groomed and the riding is a little rough, but decent, the scenery
is Great!
See you soon, Phil & Ellen Hart
