Fishing Report ( List of lakes can be found at the bottom of the page ) Bring in those big ones we need some new pictures. Hope you all go to Rose lake and help take out a bunch of Pike. Remember there is no size limit on the pike in Rose lake and Wells Lake, and you can keep 5.
04/13/2008 Open water is the report now, which is great, its been a long cold winter. Best ice we've had in a few years. At times there was too much cold and too much snow, but all in all it was a very good winter. Looking forward to just as nice of a summer. Steelhead are in the rivers and hitting good. I'm getting reports of the Crappies moving into the coves and channels. Pike should be done spawning and the gills will soon go into the coves, looking to find some warmer water.
04/19/2008 I understand the Crappies are biting like crazy, Chippewa Lake is giving up some nice ones. Steelhead are still on the bite big time. Next weekend is the opener for Trout, Pike and Walleye. Bass catch and release season also. Don't forget to get your new fishing licenses. 04/22/2008 Everyone ready for the opener? Their calling for rain Friday night, should make the trout bite like crazy. Pike and Walleye open too, with Bass season starting with the catch and release season. 04/25/2008 With the rain we got last night and this morning the Trout should be biting like there's no tomorrow for the opener tonight. I'm hearing the big Perch are hitting on Rose Lake too, should also mean that Saturday the Eyes should be on the feed. Good luck all, and have a great opener. 04/27/2008 A tough opener for sure, all the rain left the rivers and creeks very high and muddy. I heard of a few nice Trout caught, one 28" Brown was caught in the Hershey River. The wind kept a lot of guys off the lakes, but for one guy that braved the wind, managed to get a nice 21" Eye off Rose Lake. 05/05/2008 What a great weekend, all I heard were good reports. Guys enjoying the catch & release Bass season. Eyes, Perch and Crappies were being caught on Rose Lake. Crayfish were found in quite a few of the fish caught, so Crayfish colored lures were the key for the Eyes, same with the Perch. Gills are starting to move in, hearing a few nice ones are getting caught. Trout season is getting a good start too, rivers are up with the nice rains we've been getting. Morels are popping too, most are finding nice messes of them. So when the weatherman tells you how bad the weekends going to be, don't believe him, two weeks in a row, they've told us how bad it was going to be and they were wrong. I'm thinking they just want everyone to stay home, so they can have it all to themselves, no one can be wrong as much as they are.
