Great Start to the Ice Fishing Season
We had a great start to ice fishing with lots of pike and gills being caught. Too bad we had to get a storm this weekend to slow down the masses fishing. Many braved the the nasty weather to catch some fish.
FISHING CONDITIONS ON LAKES CADILLAC AND MITCHELL
FROM PILGRIM VILLAGE FISHING SHOP
The fish in Lakes Mitchell and Cadillac didn??t take any time off for the holidays. The panfish cooperated and the pike we??re cruising. Both lakes are producing, especially northern pike. Last years regulation changed, ??Anglers may now use up to three rods or tip-ups while angling regardless of species,? has caught on. Many are jigging for panfish or walleye and setting tip-ups. Mixed catches of crappie, gills and perch, topped off with a pike or two are common.
Walleye - Tip-ups rigged with light line are catching their share. We??ve seen more since first ice then all summer.
The predominant panfish has been crappie with a few gills or perch to fill out a limit.
