Good morning! It doesn’t look like spring is too excited to arrive, the Robin’s are going to hurt their beaks if they come back now. I just returned from Manitoba, where we were filming an episode of “We Love It! Outdoors” on Lake Winnipeg. Giant walleye’s were our target and we accomplished our goal. It wasn’t easy, but we did get a great show for our efforts. This is a must fish, fishery for all of you that are walleye people! I did catch a couple of 9-10 pounders and we also had an 11 and another 10 caught by our crew. Big greenbacks!! Around here we still have a lot of ice, but definitely not as much as they have up there. I had a 24 inch extension on my auger and that was perfect. The pan fish “bite” is about to get fired-up around here and then hopefully we will get in a little time on the Rainy River in search of walleye’s and sturgeon before the gobbling begins! Lots to do and not a lot of time to get it all done! For now, it’s time to gather my bags and head down to the northwest sport show and sell some Larson Boats! Have a great day and we will talk with you later!

Welcome fishermen. We are enjoying a real old fashion winter with great snow and ice conditions. The fishing has been great for panfish and perch. The pike are starting to feed good as they are getting ready for the spring spawn. Walleyes have been a little on the slow side they seem to be affected by the unstable weather we have had. The lake trout have been biting with some real jumbos being caught. Spring is on its way and our summer schedule is filling fast. So give us a call and book your fishing adventure now. Happy New year and remember GET OUTDOORS !!!!!!

Good, cold morning to you! No school here in the Brainerd, MN district today, it’s 40 something below zero. I am guessing it is warmer where you are (or maybe not). The Extravaganza was here and is now gone and we will have to wait for the silver anniversary to get on that leader board! I think next year will be my year, the world’s largest ice fishing contest is on my birthday next year..January 24th, 2015! It’s a party, anyone can come. The winning fish was a walleye this year and it was about 5 pounds, caught by a man from Nisswa. The fishing was really slow as a cold front decided to sweep on through during the middle of the night. It’s such a fun event, catching fish is really secondary. Overall, fishing in the area has slowed down a bit because of the brutal cold fronts that have settling in. We are continuing to do guided trips and some fish house rentals, but I think we are all ready to order up the new Larson FX series fishing boats and get them ready for the Rainy River come March! If you are interested in booking a guided trip up to the Rainy to fish walleyes and sturgeon, please give us a call and we will work out the details. As for now, it’s time to pray for a beautiful February to close out the “big fish” season and then start to focus on late ice pan fish. The one nice thing about all the snow on the ice is that the ice will hopefully go out earlier than last year (there is only about 20 inches at this time. Enjoy the day and don’t forget to tune in to “We Love It! Outdoors” on Fox, Pursuit and Tuff TV!,

Welcome anglers. The fishing in the Brained area has started to pick up with the walleye and crappie bite being the best option. The bass are still biting on the deep weed lines with some occasional pike mixed in. The fall colors are peaking this week so get up here and enjoy them and catch some fish at the same time. And remember GET OUTDOORS !!!!!!!

Welcome fishermen and women. Fishing in the Brainerd area has been great. We’ve been catching lots of bass and pike. Walleye fishing has been great at times, but also really slow on certain days. We’ve been string for them for a couple hours and if they don’t cooperate we switch to bass and pike. Trout fishing has slowed with stocked fish being harvested. The panfishing has still been solid with lots of numbers but not the greatest size. So grab your friends and family and come check out our great area. And Get outdoors !!!!!!!

Welcome fishermen hope you’re having a great summer. We have great water temps for swimming and the Bass and Pike have been going nuts. Walleye fishing has been fair but we haven’t been targeting them that much. Streams are settling down for trout fishing. And trout lakes are still putting fish out. Come on up and let me show you this great area. And remember Get Outdoors !!!

Welcome to Boggs fishing. We’ve been catching lots of fish lately. Mainly walleye,northern and bass. The weather has been tough but the fishing has been great. The panfishing has also been good but we have been saving that for some filler. Stream trout have been a little slow because of high flow with all the rain we’ve had. The lake trout are biting good with recent stocking. Good luck fishing and let us know if we can help. And remember GET OUTDOORS!!!!

Welcome anglers spring is here. The ice is mostly gone and the weather has been beautiful . The panfish are starting to bite and the walleyes are coming out of the spawn and putting on the feed bags. We’ve been catching the pike mixed right in with the walleyes. It’s a great time to fish and enjoy the Abundance of wildlife. Openings are available. And remember Get Outdoors!!!!!

Spring is here anglers!!!!! The lakes are opening and ice fishing is over. The small bays and channels are opening up and the panfish will be looking for the warm mud bottom bays where insects will be hatching. The opener will be interesting to say the least. The pike have mostly spawned, but the walleyes are still in the process. We still have a lot of ice but it is melting fast. Guide trips are booking fast so try to plan ahead. And remember Get Outdoors !!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome anglers!!! Don’t miss the biggest panfish of the season! Many of these fish are just under the ice where oxygen levels are the highest and snow critters are washing in. We still have good ice just be careful and always check conditions before venturing out. And remember GET OUTDOORS !!!!!!
