I would stay away from Big Mike's. They are very short with people they aren't familiar with.

I've only been in there a couple times and they've been VERY nice and helpful.

Backwoods bait store is the one on 70 in falun. Also, Oakland store right by the lake has minnows.

You'd be hard pressed to find any useful fishing info at any of these bait shops. Or at any bait shop for that matter. All they do is tell you what they've heard from somebody else that comes in.

The fishing everywhere has been pretty poor so far. Don't be suprised to go days without a flag.

Planning on being on a small local lake early for pike, then hit Yellow later in the afternoon to try for some walleye, maybe stay later for the crappie bite.

Black 4 door Dakota pickup, maybe pulling a small trailer.

Nothing to report for we did horrid.. Moved a few times and found promising areas but could not get anything to bite. Lots of lookers, but no takers. Used spoons, flyers, darters and different jigs. Used live bait, plastics, nothing! The only fish we caught came off a tip up.

Red Ceder the day before was not much better. 4 dink eyes, a pike and a mud puppy. Slow weekend of fishing and frustration..

Ah we'll... Had fun

ooooooooooo, a mudpuppy! sick We didn't do much better this weekend, two short eyes, both right around 5:30, both between 18-20 FOW. Marked quite a few, but no takers.

At least I wasn't the only one. Fished both Saturday and Sunday from 3 pm-7 pm. Never have I done that bad. Only one short walleye caught. Did have two large northerns cut me off, one each day. So if someone catches a northern with a green moon-glo jig on the side of it's mouth, enjoy. But I've never seen so many lookers.

logged close to 30 hrs of ice time on 4 bodies of water.pathedic is the nicest word i can use to describe fishing.couldnt really find a pattern when nothing bite.sat on 5ft wall of crappies for couple hours and caught three.shallow or deep didnt really matter.small shiners on flags did best,

Fishing is downright awful right now in the area. A friend of mine has a wheelhouse and logged 42 straight hours on the lake this weekend. He caught a 17 inch walleye and a 20 inch northern the entire time. It's been the same report from others as well. There has been a night/two with a little flurry of activity but it's been few and far between.

Hey Guys -

New to the board and spent the last few hours reading and enjoying the back posts. My family has a cabin in Danbury and I've spent the last 27 years fishing Yellow Lake (specifically musky), so I'll be glad to provide any advice I can and looking forward to learning new tips. Haven't made it up ice fishing this year but I'll be up this weekend. Planning on fishing the home lake Saturday morning and heading to Yellow in the afternoon. I'll be in a Clam Bigfoot out of Ike Walton's if anyone wants to stop in and say hi.

Nice to meet you all -

Vic
