Anyone have any ice reports or places to look out for (bad ice) in the Faribault area. I am not overly concerned with fishing reports unless people want to offer some tidbits. I have to work down there tomorrow and am thinking of hitting a lake down there before, after or both. I would like to know if people are driving much yet because I want to maximize my time by not having to pull my shack. I am mostly looking to get out and try my new portable that I assembled today and any fish would be a bonus. Thanks in advance everyone!
-
I know MNO member "letgofishing" does alot of ice fishing out on Cannon Lake and Roberds Lake around Faribault so he may be someone to contact through pm if no one else offers up any helpful info for you. Good luck on the ice if you make it out! :fishing2:
I found this post from "letgofishing" in another thread if it helps....
Hey buddies
Let u know we went Roberds Lake @ Faribault
We caught 19 nice crappies over 12" and some nice sunnies today
We ll go back tomorrow morning @ Roberds Lake...
Also Mazaska lake yesterday we got 55 nice sunnies...
-
Thanks for the excerpt Scott!
-
Yeah Dan aka "letgofishing" is a fishing machine, he fishes all the time and always has some great pictures that he emails me.
Here is a pic that he sent me a couple days ago from Roberds lake, 20 crappies and 3 sunnies.

That is a good looking picture. I might have to give mazaska a try and just do the old fashion "fish near the little cities" routine since I do not have much time and just want to try the new house.
-
i'd do mazaska...
-
Thanks John, stopped in there briefly after working today from about 3 - 4 PM and managed a few gills and a few crappies. The bigest being a 9 inch crappie. I just went out about 200 yards from the access and set up in 25 feet of water. i did not have any bait and only used a Ratso. there was a solid 15 inches of ice. The new house is awesome. Cannot wait until I can actually put some time in and get some dinner!!
-

Thank you Pat....

There was a Jeep that the front end dropped in on Thursday. It dropped in at 4PM and they didn't get it out till 8PM. They had to take the tires off the back and they broke the drive shaft. Just thought i'd let you guys know.
-
where @ happened?
-
Again nice 15ner. I might venture that way tomorrow afternoon and night. Maybe I will see you out in the area. I have a black Dodge Ram and brand new Frabil Trekker Deluxe Stop by and say hello if you happen to be out!
-
I work overnight shift sucks.
I will be there most on Fri. n Sat. n Sun. morning 7am all time.
Good luck icefish.
-
Sorry about the delay in response of the Jeep that went thru, but where it dipped the ice was off of Bull Rush Bay on Mazaska. When you go off of Bull Rush Bay and go thru the catails there are 2 main paths it would be the path off to the right. The only reason why I know this is because the guy that I work with, his fish house was only 60 feet away from where that happened. It is marked with yellow tape now too. I have pictures of it and will post once I can figure how to download them off my phone to my computer.
-
Was on Mazaska today for 7 hours and it was very slow. Tried about every depth and every jig with every artificial and meat I could come up with. Managed a few small gills and perch and that was it. Anyone want to stear me in the right direction???
-
for Mazaska lake ice fishing u have find 3 different spot with 28 feet deep PERFECT there hot bites crappies with 10 feet off from bottom... I will there @ Mazaska lake after End of week January to March. This weekend will go Roberds if slow then I will go French lake as heard peoples talk that guys got 2lbs crappie whooo!!! also some walleyes with 42 to 52 feet deep.
-
Luke, look for the cow house... If it's still out there, that's were I would fish by. Used to be a few years ago, perminant house a guy would drag out there. Always got crappies by it.
-
Nice tip John! i will look for it next time I am down there. Probably Friday I am thinking. Is this a night or morning bite lake?? Any hot jigs that people would like to share??
-
Hey Pat

Tried Roberds Monday morning and didn't have even close to that kind of luck. I must have been using the exact opposite presentation! My vex was lit up, but nothing did more than sniff my presentation. I was stumped cause you usually get at least one or two agressive bites out of the school.
-
Hey Stensethfan,
same other many peoples and friends pissed off @ me. they didnt catch very much most no fish to 3 crappies
i kick alots slabs crappies... very challenge bites as very fussy bites GUYS can't feel it while bites.

Went to Mazaska yesterday and had a blast...nonstop doubles from 1-3 pm (go figure on the time) and then off and on after that....nothing of great size, but after a winter of not catching fish over by Rochester, was fun to see that there are actually live fish somewhere

no big deal my son DJ n I enjoyed catch n released crappies no problem @ all. ha
red lake we been there last time 4 yrs ago to 8 years ago we kicked alots slabs bring home ALOTS then start 3 yrs ago red lake too many walleyes than slabs so we quit red lake icefishing for good as no slabs very much.
:cold:
-
I wish the crappies never left, but the walleye and pike bite has been better than Mille Lacs so I just drive right on by the Big Pond. Next year I will probably make the one hour drive further north and hit LOW.
How has it been in Faribault? I think I heard Letgofishing was heading out tomorrow morning? I will have to check on Sunday when I get home to see how he did! Good Luck!
-

Today we went Roberds lake there been fussy watch the hook with wax worm fishfinder 4 times FULL fish wont bite but we caught 2 crappies that's all then we went Mazaska lake and there pretty good fry fish like chicken fingers better than nothing as mixed crappies and sunnies crazy bites we caught n released over 40 fish. fun and released. i heard next weekend suppose be 30 to 40's so sounds should be very GOOD. do that at Roberds lake in the morning then afternoon go Mazaska lake til after dark. i thinking go Roberds early tomorrow morning to 10 to 11am? depend on fish biting. as today the pressure too way high. i see went down pretty slow so this week i believe will be very good...
good time icefishing with Luke today... Thank you for the tip.
other time will kick alots fish someday.

-
Let u know some area in Faribault Lakes open water whole... wow....
I'm forwarding open water on shores in abt 2 to 3 weeks for monster white bass fun and Panfish.... Go Fish....
-
Thanks for the report Buddy! I am guessing with the rain the we recieved in Cottage Grove tonight the ice is fading fast. if I am not mistaken most of the same rain fell in Faribault. Soon open water fishing will be upon us! Cannot wait to wack some slabs when the ice leaves!
-
@ Mazaska lake.... those pix white bass from last yr. in spring. while ice gone after 2 weeks.

-
Nice whitties! I love fishing for the whites. :fishing2:
-
perfect fish to throw back ! :puke: :rotflmao: jk
-
letgofishing, check up on the state record white bass, I don't think its too big of a fish that has the record?
-
Drummer those are not records but nice fish. The state record is 18.5 inches and 4 pounds. I got two fish on Tetonka that were 16 inchers, and heres one of them. Oh they taste good also!
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii286/tapper1823/whitebass.jpg)
-
I never said they were state record fish, just too keep it in mind when he does catch a big whitey!

[/quodo they really tast good ? i got 2 of them last year on "mad dog " trolling for eyes but i did not think they where good for eating at all .....
-
How did you clean/prepare them? It makes a difference on how you do it.
-
How did you clean/prepare them? It makes a difference on how you do it.
i tossed it back ......but how do you do it right
-
When you filet them make sure you get the tough red meat off them. I would let them soak overnight or longer in milk. Batter them up and fry em! I cooked some up for my Dad and I knew he would have not wanted to try the white bass so I told them they were walleye fillets. After he had eaten most of them I said you know those were White Bass! He said wow those were darn good!
-
white bass fry fish are CHAMPS....
during cold water very good to eat right away catch then deep fry fish very good...
i wont keep in freezer fish taste not very good. just catch then deep fry fish right away very good to eat...
-
My son DJ got big bass n He RELEASED IT at Mazaska lake.
we got limits black 20 crappies too some nice sunfish.

Are you catching all of these on Shields or Masazka? We were going to go up to the fairbault area to get in this action 2 weekends ago, but we never got up with all that rain and ice!
Crappies and Sunnies have been pretty slow down here, you can catch 10-15 in an afternoon, but nothing of size.
The river has been better, some slab perch and the occasional walleye over 15"
