Last evening the few that were out overnight expecting a good bite got the opposite instead.  Some didn’t even mark anything in some spots.  This morning as the sprinkles started some had some action but for most it was quiet. So far we haven’t received much as far as rain. The roads are holding up […] The post February 14th 2023 first appeared on...

Not much to report from yesterday afternoon and overnight as few were out there.  The barometer is dropping with the approaching rain/snow event coming Tuesday and Wednesday. The weather forecast says we are to receive a 1/4″-1/2″ of rain tomorrow and turning to snow Wednesday then going in the deep freeze till the weekend. The […] The post Februa...

I missed yesterday’s report as I attended a funeral for a cousin of mine.  Hearing the reports from angler’s leaving today it was a slow bite for most.  But the beautiful weather out there yesterday afternoon made up for it.  People were out of their houses and sitting in the sun enjoying it.  With the […] The post February 12th 2023 first appeare...

Reports from anglers overnight from yesterday showed they had pretty good luck.  Some nice sized C/R Walleye were reported.  A couple big ones lost in the hole in two houses.  Also some decent Perch action was had in shallow water. Perch were also in deep too but more smaller ones were out there. We plowed […] The post February 8th 2023 first appe...

The weekend wheelhouse list starts today for the upcoming weekend.  Seasonal and weekenders need to call and get on the list so we know how many are arriving. We will be  making new spots in the gravel bars mentioned yesterday and will be headed SW of Spider in the basin for Perch and Northern.  With […] The post February 7th 2023 first appeared o...

The bite was pretty good over the weekend for  some anglers and slow for others.  Friday overnight was the best reported action when the front went thru and the barometer changed. I received many nice pictures of C/R Walleye and some in the slot also.  Saturday evening those fishing shallow did pretty good in some […] The post February 6th 2023 fi...

Today the bite picked up some.  Overnight still seems to be the best. With the weather forecasted to be pretty nice I’m hoping it will continue with the full moon approaching. Today we open up some new areas out around the  deep edges of the Tundra.  We will have more spots for wheelhouses that I […] The post February 1st 2023 first appeared on Ly...

Monday there was very few fishermen out with the cold weather and today we only have a few houses rented but we will see how they do.  The last couple days with the high barometer the deeper water has seen small Walleye and Perch activity during daylight hours and “keepers” or larger Walleye have been […] The post January 30th 31st 2023 first appe...

Today as fishermen left from the weekend most of the reports were OK.  Some had some decent fishing for Walleye.  Many pictures were sent in of slot and C/R Walleye those that didn’t have much luck had some decent Perch fishing.  Some anglers didn’t do much at all but it unfortunately it seems it always […] The post January 29th 2023 first appeare...

As the weather changed yesterday the bite was good for a bit as the wind switched then got pretty quiet.  Overnight I did not hear any reports. The weather forecast is still about the same with 1-2 inches of snow overnight and South winds switching to NW in the morning at 20-25 with possible gusts […] The post January 26th 2023 first appeared on L...

Anglers out yesterday reported a slow bite. Mainly smaller Perch and Walleye. The slot Walleye and larger are well fed and healthy and when the timing is off they are hard to catch. Those that do work for them.  Just sitting with a set line doesn’t work some days. We have received a lite dusting […] The post January 25th 2023 first appeared on Lyb...

Things were quiet out on the ice yesterday.  The  slot and larger sized Walleye that are being caught are healthy  and well fed this year.  Definitely it makes it more difficult and the traditional dusk and night bite seems to be the best.  During the day the main focus is Perch. Ice conditions are slowly […] The post January 24th 2023 first appea...

Yesterday anglers reported a pretty slow day out there. A couple rentals did fair but overall it was pretty quiet. This morning it’s snowing and we are to receive an inch or two before noon.  It will be nice to have new snow for banking.  The flooded areas along the road banks have froze enough […] The post January 19th 2023 first appeared on Lyba...

The bite yesterday was mixed with some doing well others not.  Had some slot Walleye reported. But smaller Perch and Walleye were still almost everywhere. One more day of plowing spots for permanents and then we are pulling what we can for the weekend.  You will be notified when it’s on the ice.  With the […] The post January 18th 2023 first appea...

Yesterday’s above freezing temps settled and softened the snow some out there. It also created larger areas of slush under the snow Especially in areas where portable anglers were fishing.  Most of the road banks dropped the last couple days as we hoped they would so now we definitely need some colder weather to freeze […] The post January 17th 20...

Yesterday the bite was slow  during the day Mostly small Perch and Walleye. Late afternoon and early evening things picked up. I received numerous pictures of some nice C/R Walleye. We are continuing to clear spots for houses to go on in the future.  The ice depths vary from 12″-15″.  Some areas that flooded due […] The post January 14th 2022 firs...

The bite yesterday and overnight was pretty quiet from what reports I heard so far.  This will hopefully improve with the weather changes over the weekend.  The Walleye bite is mainly at night with Perch and Northern Pike action during the day in shallower spots. We are allowing vehicle traffic to rentals and permanents that […] The post January 1...

Yesterday we established the road to the Banana and East Spider reefs.  There is a slush spot that needs to freeze before it’s passable but it will eventually.   Today I’m starting to plow spots for houses.  Yesterday I started with some and it take 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour to break up the snow […] The post January 12th 2023 first appeared on Lyback'...

Yesterday was spent getting what rentals we have out ready for the weekend clearing roads from the last snow and looking for new areas that are flooded and froze so we can hopefully get permanents out for our customers.  Even with the cold weather the last couple nights areas that have slushed out are not […] The post January 7th 2023 first appear...

Yesterday after getting roads and rentals open I did more ice checking and what I suspected was true. Almost everywhere off the existing roads unless it was an area previously flooded and froze had slush under the snow. Until that freezes it will limit us putting out houses  I’m not plow thru slush and set-up […] The post January 6th 2023 first ap...
