ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT UNTIL CHRISTMAS, AND WE HAVE HAD SOME VERY HAPPY CUSTOMERS. SOME NICE PERCH HAVE BEEN CAUGHT ON BOTH LAKES.

THE ICE CONDITIONS ARE IMPROVING DAILY, AND STILL WARRANT A WORD OF CAUTION. ON AVERAGE WE ARE HEARING FOUR TO SIX INCHES OF GOOD ICE ON BOTH LAKES.
BLACK BASS BAY SEEMS TO HAVE FADED IN IT’S BID FOR A PERCH FRENZY, BUT I GOT REPORTS TONIGHT OF BEAUTIFUL WALLEYE COMING IN AT NIGHT, JUST SOUTH OF BLACK BASS BAY IN DEEPER WATER, USING GREYS.
ALSO WHISKEY BAY, WHISKEY POINT, BURNT ISLAND, AND BROWN ISLAND HAVE HAD REPORTS OF VERY NICE PERCH DURING THE DAY.
LONG LAKE HAD SHOWN SOME SIGNS OF LIFE AROUND ROUND TOP, AND IN THE BAY AREAS. THERE ARE TWO PERMANENT SHANTIES AT ROUND TOP NOW.
MOST FOLKS ARE USING GREYS AND BLUES AT GRAND LAKE, AND ON LONG LAKE THEY ARE USING THOSE ALSO, ALONG WITH WIGGLERS, WAXWORMS AND PERCH SHINERS. BOTH TIP UPS AND JIGGING POLES ARE BEING USED. WE HAVE HEARD OF QUADS AND SNOWMOBILES ON BOTH LAKES. THE ICE IS EARLY, AND WE HAVE A LOT OF WINTER LEFT, SO BE VERY CAUTIOUS OUT THERE.
WE WILL BE OPEN 7 TO 5 NOW, EXCEPT DEC. 24 WE WILL CLOSE AT 2 PM, AND WE WILL BE CLOSED CHRISTMAS DAY. AFTER THAT IT WILL BE EVERY DAY, 7 TO 5, RIGHT THROUGH MARCH.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON
LORIE AND BUDD.
