I would like the same information.

It would be nice to have some good sunfish and crappie fishing "so close" to Grand Forks, ND.

Also, what type of bait or rigs to you use when fishing the sunken road that used to run from Minnewaukan.

i know this is not about devils lake but you said you are looking for good sunny and crappie fishing so close to GF.
well we have had pretty good luck so far this year fishing maple lake. it is in MN so you would need a MN licence to fish there legally. Maple is just off of US 2 in Mentor.
most of the time a slip bobber is used but some use beetlespins with luck as well. have not quite got the colors thing worked out as it weems to change constantly.

so back to ND fishing

since i figured i fish the red for cats and i want to hit Devils lake i got a non resident ND license.
so now i am looking for some good spots in ND for fishing. not really picky about the kind as i am a catch and release fisher. though i might actually keep some this year as i have a fillet knife now.
have heard talk about sakakawea but that is one heck of a drive.
any other places?
