Ice Conditions & Weather Reports

It was 3° this morning. If I were a betting man, I’d say it’s the last time we’re gonna see a temperature that low until next season. We’ll take it though. The cold night should help keep safe ice through the end of walleye season. The warm temperatures starting Monday and rain in the forecast Wednesday and Thursday will probably…

Today was an uneventful day on the Noc with a lot of sunshine and a stiff breeze. We’ve had a fair number of anglers talking about the bite….or should I say the lack there of. The good news is, ice conditions remain excellent! It took a while today for fish to come in to be weighed, but it finally happened.…

The second to last weekend of the walleye season is upon us. The ice conditions are incredible but probably won’t last. Best to get here now. If you didn’t listen last week, you missed the bite Friday, Saturday and Sunday for sure. With Monday’s cold front and tight lips all week, they’ll need to eat sometime. A lot of anglers…

It was another sunshine filled day on Little Bay de Noc. Ice conditions remain incredible on the Upper Bay. Travel around the reefs and the mud flats is still a little bumpy which means we’re not melting off. That’s good! At the top of the bay is another story. Roads plowed earlier in the season are obstacles you’ll want pay…

Long day on the bay and time got away. Short report just like the bite. Lookers but not many takers. Hoping some big eyes show up hungry in the shallows tonight. Ice conditions remain excellent. We are losing a few inches from underneath with the warm up. Our guests from the other side of the bridge Keith and Mike trying…

Windy, windy, windy day on the bay. I guess the heavy appetite this past weekend has come to an end. Far fewer anglers to report but even our diehards had a tough go of it today. Travel on the upper bay remains excellent. Probably going to melt off the remaining snow soon. With the low temps at night ice should…

Anglers submitted a lot of photos. Some described it as an epic weekend! And man were they ever right. Beautiful weather, great ice conditions and the bite was on! 15 days left of the walleye season there’s still time and it only gets better. My favorite big fish picture is a walleye landed on 4# test and a tungsten jig…

It’s Saturday, 45°, sunny and there is a good breeze. Little Bay de Noc is home to hundreds of Shacks today. Thousands of anglers that have spent millions of dollars on tackle and gear trying to catch some of the billions of fish. If you’re not here you’re missing it! Travel on the upper bay remains great! There are a…

14 degrees and another beautiful sunrise today on Little Bay de Noc. The overnight temps in the teens firmed up the wet snow. This made for a bumpy ride navigating yesterdays ruts. This back-and-forth is going to go on for the rest of the season. Which is fine. We’ve got good ice and don’t need anymore. The bite shut down…
