RED LAKE REPORT

May 6th, 2008

THE ICE HAS LEFT UPPER RED LAKE.

FISHING OPENER 2008 IS A GO.

We have seen a lot of fish making their annual spawning run up the creeks and rivers, this year has been a little different with northern, walleye, and suckers all in these waterways at the same time, Mother Nature has really thrown the fish for-a-loop. I would say those who will be fishing from a boat will be best off with a slip bobber rig set 12" off bottom with a 1/4oz. jig tipped with a fathead minnow, fish the first break or drop off where it goes from 3' too 8'deep  . Those fishing the rivers should tie on a 1/4 - 3/8oz. jig right to your line tipped with a fathead minnow then cast a little up steam and slowly retrieve until you feel that bump-bump then let them have it.

UPPER RED LAKE RULES.

Your allowed 3.

All fish 17" - 26" must be immediately released.
