MNtransplant Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 I'm happy to kickoff the 2022 thread! Headed up to my 2nd favorite fishing hole on Friday with some buddies from work..we're hoping the forecast holds and we can find some whites or walleyes waking up for the Spring. Will post with updates BilletHead 1
Jhoff Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 Good Luck, I'm dying to get out of the house and wet a line just no time.
Flysmallie Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 Good luck! I'm thinking it will take some rain though to bring them up.
Dutch Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 I hope to get to Big Sac or Sons Wed or Thursday. MNtransplant 1

Tired of the people so I go farther downstream in a boat and sometimes never see another soul :). I have caught a ton of fish there though. Started fishing there over 45 years ago.

DADAKOTA Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 I used to fish there a lot as well. Caught many slab crappie there as well as walleyes and whites. Can you still drop a boat in at N highway? I used to hike downriver from the bridge to get away from the crowds. Used to be a great boat ramp above the dam that I'd use to bass fish in the mill pond and above.
bologna Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Orleans has so many dink whites right now they are literally begging to be caught. Caught a few decent sized ones but it was 20 dinks to 1 good one. Checked up by the Frisco bridge, water is low and clear, no fish yet. trythisonemv and BilletHead 1 1

Actually, a couple years back the road was redone to the ramp and ramp was cleaned up with some gravel. Fishing down below the bridge one sunday morning in my pond prowler they turned on the water. I had parked my pickup by the water. I hit the TM as fast as it would go and by the time, I got there the water was up to my running boards. You could count on no water running on Sunday but not that day. The little park above the mill dam in town was originally owned by MDC. They abandoned it and it was then given to the bridge society in town. You could still camp there and launch. I am not sure what happened if it was an insurance deal but then it was sold to a gal in town. She started charging for camping and soon it was chained off and no trespassing. You are right about the fishing above. Some nice smallmouth up there too. I have caught two below the dam since I fished there but a bunch above. Farther up you go the more there are.
