Any word from Mud Hen, seen some traffic out there on Xmas weekend

Anyone on here ice fish Big McKenzie (Burnett County) very often? I tried fishing Yellow a few times last year for Walleye and only caught a few small ones. I studied the topo maps for Big Mckenzie and it appears to have good structure for holding Walleye's. I'm not looking for anyone's secret spot just an idea of the amount of fish one can expect to see with doing their homework and using a GPS/vexilar. If Mckenzie is not great what is another close lake (my inlaws cabin is on Lake 26). Feel free to PM me.

Looking forward to camping down by the minong flowage for the weekend. Probably going to fish Sand (big) and the flowage. Any recent reports?

[gman2002]

I have a place on the flowage and was up for the weekend of the 4th, what a zoo!! But we still did real well on the crappies. If you find the brushpiles the crappies will be real tight and in there. Seems like if your 10 feet away from the brush - no fish. I have 6-7 nice brush piles marked and I'll anchor over it and throw out a boober to float around but most of my fish will come verticle jigging right in the brush. usually don't fish the walleyes, but catch alot in the brush with the crappies. I'll be back up this weekend hopefully it will be a little quieter. The big sunfish are on the prowl also.

good luck
