March 5-6 trip ideas

[BigDaddy]

I'm thinking about planning a trip for March 5-6. Where are people fishing that time of year? Is Pike still open in the Canadian waters of LOW? Crappie trip?

Thanks!

Big Daddy,

MIght be a "tad" bit early on the huge jacks, but I have been fishing Buffalo Bay for the past 8 years in MArch. You can get into some excellent LArge Northern action with solid walleye and jumbo perch fishing as well.

ALready jonesing for a trip eh?

Don't blame ya!!

Keep the rods bendin'!!

I got the wife to give me a pass for two overnight fishing trips for this year. Winni in January and ? in March.

Thanks for the Buffalo Bay tip!

Big Daddy,

Not a very original answer, but if you haven't hit Red Lake for March crappies you should give it a try.

Those 14" inchers aren't going to last forever.

Even if you don't hit a bunch, the ones you catch are so big it's worth it!

LOW would be 1st on my list then Red Lake on the way home. Then when I get home from there I will go out and hit Wisconsin Point of Lake Superior for big eyes.

March is great for open water walleyes on rivers, but if you are still thinking about ice, LOW is the place to be.

I would recommend staying at the Drake Motel in Black Duck. Winnie, Red and LOW are all a short drive. Red crappies, Winnie perch and LOW walleyes, sauger and perch can all be had over a couple days.

Good luck.
