Well folks, Blackduck lake has a couple inches of snow with 6-8" of frozen slush under that, with at least 2 feet of ice under that! So if anyone wants to get some ice fishing in yet... There's still time! We have't seen alot of people out fishing, but if we have ice, why not fish it?! I'd say that's making the best of our situation! We are driving 4 wheelers or snowmobiles out.

We found the perch!

GOOD NEWS!!! We finally have something to write about! :-) Larry plowed out to a tough place to get to & it has paid off! He's finally on the Jumbo Perch! it's been a tough winter for the perch, but March has proven once again to be the best month for those Jumbo's! We are the only people plowed out to that area, and plowing is a tough task right now! We still have 1 cabin left for Friday night, if anyone is interested! 218.835.7759

Blackduck update... people are getting around on plowed roads only with trucks or cars. We have about 2' of snow off the paths. It's making it difficult to get to some spots, unless you have a snowmobile. As of today we have roads plowed out over to the west side of the lake where the crappies have been biting. They have been turning on around 6pm. Perch have been a bit tougher to get this winter..., but holding out hope for the rest of March, because it's usually the best time for perch fishing! We just heard a report of the perch being in 7' of water. Everywhere guys are drilling, they are seeing them, just a bit tough to get them to bite. We are going to be doing some more exploring this week to see if we can find those Jumbos! Feel free to give us a shout for the latest info, and in case you don't have a place to stay yet, we do have a cabin open this weekend! 218.835.7759

Fresh Powder...

Goodmorning Dunrovin Fans!  We ended up getting about 8-9" of fresh powder!  We had some new to Dunrovin snowmobiliers in this weekend, they said that our trails are in alot better condition than where they normally go. :-)   There's not as much traffic, our main traffic is fishermen, because of the lake!  So I would like to encourage snowmobilers to consider the Blackduck area, for their next trip!  Fishing slowed down a bit again with the storm front pushing through.  People were fishing in 10-12 fow, the walleye seemed to bite best around 5pm.  There was a real nice 30" northern caught during the day.  Larry will continue to plow the roads out to the best spots on the lake.  I gotta say, he's got his work cut out for him today! :-)

Fish & Snow update

Well, Snowmobilers have having a blast with all this snow!  We ended up getting another 3 good inches yesterday! The trails are groomed right out side our door!  We are closely watching Sunday's storm.  Right now they are predicting 8-12" for us!  With another potential big storm the Feb 16th, but that's a way off yet.  Fishing slowed down quite a bit with this last cold front that pushed through, but on the flip side, our ice is in great shape!  We did have some of our guys get a couple walleye & 1 huge crappie!  They couldnt get over the size!  Most people are still fishing in 10-12 fow, they are using just about every kind of lure & bait to get the fish to bite.  Hopefully this weekend we'll have some great pics of more fish! Happy Trails & Happy Fishin'!
