Be careful...

Safety is the key in this weeks post! No fish is worth dropping in. I have had numerous people contact me about the safety of the ice on Devils Lake over the last week, the bottom line is it is sketchy.

We absolutely do not suggest driving a vehicle!!!!! Walking or in some areas atv's are fine, but could change very quickly.

The problem is that the ice is changing daily (for the worse) and you really have to take that into consideration when you go out.

The bite for Walleyes has been best the last two hours of the day. Pike fishing has been insanely good, using tip ups. Perch fishing we aren't totally sure on because we haven't been venturing as far out for them.

So if you do fish remember to have ice picks, fish with another person, avoid current areas and ridges.

Open water is near!!

Be safe!
