Devils Lake Fishing Report

Here's a fishing report from Ed's Bait:

Ice conditions continue to improve. According to the most recent report from Ed's Bait Shop, fishing has been fairly good, but spotty. Best bets for perch include the north end of Six-Mile Bay, mouth of Creel Bay, the Dome House/Towers area, Swanson's Point and Black Tiger Bay. Perch are coming from 30 to 45 feet of water and are hitting small jigs or spoons tipped with waxworms, spikes or minnow heads. Perch have been congregated in tight areas, so anglers should keep on the move until they mark or catch fish.

For walleyes, the best action is early and late. Spots worth trying include the north end of Six-Mile Bay, Rocky and Military points, Swanson's Point, the Fort Totten/Cactus Point areas and the Stromme Addition. Work the trees or deeper rocky structure with blade baits or jigging spoons tipped with a minnow head.

Morrison Lake and Lake Irvin remain the best bets for small- to medium-sized pike, while larger fish are showing up in the north end of Six-Mile Bay and Jerusalem Bay in East Devils Lake, according to Ed's Bait.

Six-Mile Bay will be hopping Saturday afternoon with anglers fishing the Devils Lake Volunteer Fire Department's annual ice fishing tournament. Fishing is set for 1 to 3:30 p.m.
