fall walleye fishing

Well, I can finally say I’m done ice fishing for this season. It’s been the year of a ton of ups and downs. Lots of breakdowns, getting stuck, late nights fixing crap, making plans, blizzards, super cold stretches, great bites, terrible bites etc. but in the end it was a great ice fishing year!

So with that I’m out of the Devils Lake area for awhile and I’m done on the ice. Time to move on to the Missouri River! I’ll be bringing you lots of ramp reports, fishing reports, conditions etc etc here in the next couple of months! Looking forward to it! Stay tuned!
