[size 2]Warm temps are starting to effect ice conditions on Devils Lake. While the main sheet of ice is in good shape, areas near bridges and shorelines are starting to deteriorate a bit. Atv’s and snowmobiles are your best bet. Perch fishing’s been steady in the Black Tiger, Woods Rutten, Skadsen’s, and Creel Bay areas. Hali’s, genz worms, kastmasters, or hanger rigs tipped with wax worms, spikes, or minnows all work at times. Stay mobile and move around until you find active fish. Walleye fishing’s been pretty good this past week. Fish are being caught at Foughty’s Point, the 57 bridge area, East Bay near Camp Grafton, and Doc Hagen’s area. Try using sonars, chubby darters, nils, raps, & buckshot rattle spoons tipped with minnow heads. Pike fishing in the Churches Ferry continues to remain good, but ice conditions have deteriorated there and we don’t recommend any vehicle traffic in that area. Good Luck & Good Fishing!!! [/size]
