Took my wife out today for a few hours. Action was hot from the start. Just trolling Scheels holo perch spoons we caught 42 pike, most about 2-3lbs but my wife did get the biggest fish of her life bringing in a 15 lb pike and added a very nice 3lb walleye as a bonus. Beautiful day on the water.

didn't do any good on the walleye, but the pike were biteing like crazy  didn't seem to matter where we went.  we used lindy rigs with minnows and hammered silver or firetiger blades.  towards the end of the outing we went over to the bridge and cast in towards it with pretty much any color jighead with an auger tail grub white in color.  it was a blast. would be a great time to take a kid out, water was clear so you could see fish all over the place.  ended up keepin 8 of them that were 3-4 pounds. caught probably 25 of them total.

Anyone have a fishing & ice thickness report for Rice Lake (by Strasburg, ND), Cherry Lake (by Steele), Lake Helen (by Tuttle), Froelich Dam (Sioux County) or Crooked Lake (near Mercer)? I was going to try one of these lakes this weekend with a full size wheel house and curious about ice thickness.

Fished the tournament got lots of pike on the tip ups. All were around 26-28 inches. None really big enough to compete. Still no perch, little guys seem to be elusive this year.

I was thinking of trying Marvin Miller Lake west of Gackle next weekend and was wondering if anybody has been out punching holes.  I've tried Braddock Dam and caught hundreds of little perch but no walleye and northerns.  I was just wondering if anybody has been out and had any luck.

Quite a few people out catching Northerns. Ice is around 8-9" couple people had their cars out on the ice. Only caught 1 Pike about 23 inches or so. Was hoping the Perch would have been biting but no luck. There is a break in the ice by the boat landing so just have to avoid that section and you are good. Caught the northern on a tip up on the edge of the weeds in about 9 ft of water.

Fishing has slowed some on Goose Lake, although  perch still being caught. The Minot paper is showing good for walleye but of all the people I've visited with and my personal fishing, nothing  going on for walleye. You do tangle into some decent pike occasionally though.  Be advised a 4 wheeler broke through, near a permanent type fish house, last Sat., if you notice an area of wood posts outlining an area, stay away- it's about 350 yds. south of the area, people are accessing the lake (from the north side). Very slippery, cleats are needed- some have been driving on but the ice is only about 10-11" yet.
