waxworm09 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 We are looking to rent a sleeper later this month and would like to go after some Perch. There will be 4 of us. Does anyone have any recommendations on a resort or lake we should target? Prefer up north in MN, but we would have no issue traveling to ND or SD to find a weekend of good fishing. Thanks for any advice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrewJones Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 try leech lake I have rented from walkers rental's , it think thats what its called, just search in the leech section you will find a bunch of them. We went out of pine point and always had great luck in nice new(er) Ice Castles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratherBlucky Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Devils lake. Than if you cant go till first part of march, MN season closes for walleye, you can go after other fish than just perch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waligators Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Big Stone Lake might be what you're looking for too. Give Arties Bait and Tackle in Ortonville a call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holmsvc Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 NE SD or Devils Lake would be your best bet for big perch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Dave2 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 High Banks resort on Winnie. Look up their Facebook page and take a look at all the pictures of Perch they are catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikerliker Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I would second Big Stone on the MN S Dakota border. They have been having a good perch bite most of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPN LIPS Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 We stayed in one of Arties shacks on big stone and did pretty good. nice houses and at 160 a night i think its hard to beat that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waxworm09 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 I looked into arties on big stone, but he must have jacked up the prices. Its 300 a night for a 4 man sleeper. Looked like a nice house but that is a high price, most other places I have looked into are right around 200 a night for same size house. Was that this year you stayed there at that price?

JBMasterAngler Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Those rates aren't per person. $300 split between 4 guys is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthDakotaguide Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 our shacks are lodge ice shacks and they are $150 a night sleep 3-6 guys we have them in NE SD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM1 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Is there much of a night bite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthDakotaguide Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 SM1 we have a very great walleye night bite but perch mostly shut down after dark in South Dakota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRH1175 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I would third, Highbanks. We caught alot of the fish pictured on Highbanks facebook site. The first 2 days some of us fished out of their Sleeper shack #10 and did really well on perch. The third day we ventured about 5 miles out of one of their new roads and caught a load of perch, walleyes, and northerns between 10am and 4pm.

Josh.P 86 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I would suggest ND or SD We fish stump lake that is connected to Devil's every year and are never disappointed in size or numbers of perch and walleyes. We don't get guided but there are plenty of quality guides in the area, just make sure to do your homework there are a lot of guides on devil's don't just pick the cheapest. Also some friends were on Big Stone and did well as of lately too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
