Tomahawk Fishing Report 3/28/2013

[Aquatic Arts Fishing Pro Shop]

Ice conditions are good with up to 26 inches of ice, Snow is going down but still deep, some areas have lots of slush.

Bluegills are holding in 5 to 7 feet of water. Good action on the smaller lakes but some nice catches out of Lake Nokomis this week on Purple jigs with large waxies.

Perch, still not up in the shallows. Most catches are coming out of 10 to 12 feet of water, small fatheads or wigglers working best.

Crappie, few reports this week. Some action on lake Alice in the early morning hours on Rosies. Use your tip downs. Ive noticed that the crappies are within 1 to 2 feet below the ice.

Pike (Mohawksin and Wis. River only) Starting to move into the shallow bays. Suckers or shiners for bait.

Dam action, a few boats below Prides dam. Lots of action with the small males, a few keepers being caught Use small suckers or fatheads. No reports yet from Bradley Dam for the Perch.

Good Luck!

Snow depth on the Ice went down quite a bit on Thursday making it alot easier to get around. Good reports on the gills.
Good Luck

Not much going on today (Saturday) A few anglers tried below Bradley Dam for Perch with no luck. The rain today took care of a lot of the snow on the ice. Should be some good icefishing the next week.

Colder temps and windy conditions on Monday eliminated any slush on the ice. Hardly any snow left on the ice makes it very easy to get around. No ice lost yet. Some Crappie action today using Red Lindy Frostee's with the treble hook. The Crappies today were deeper and about 2 feet off the bottom.
