Ice Conditions, Weather Reports, and More!

Today was a duplicate of yesterday but a couple degrees warmer & windy…& the fish are starting to eat! We had more than a few reports come in of big fish being caught. With the warming temps and brilliant sunshine all day we had a slight thaw. With temperatures returning to below freezing tonight, any…

Today we had the absolute best weather conditions to be out on Little Bay de Noc. The pillow of white snow was as smooth as silk and made travel in Mr. B.A. very enjoyable. No screws vibrating out of augers and everything else that doesn’t have Lock-tite. Enjoying the sunshine, shoveling out and maybe even…

It’s gonna be 24° tomorrow and partly cloudy, 32° and sunny on Saturday and 27° on Sunday to wrap up an incredible weekend. Definitely a weekend I wouldn’t wanna miss. The fish are starting to eat again. One fisherman reported a 30” walleye with some undersized eyes. He certainly wasn’t disappointed, but it definitely wasn’t…

When you see a train on the Bay that’s typically not a good sign. Trucks pulling trucks, pulling trucks, pulling trailers….The Bay Train. 7 out of 12 trucks out there today were stuck at one time or another. Needless to say, very few trucks headed out. Some anglers fishing throughout the nights snow storm were…

The prolonged snow event is now coming to an end. The last part of the system really got the snow pilling up out on the Bay. . Until late this afternoon it didn’t seem we’d get much. We definitely didn’t get near the forecast of 10-15”s. We’ll end up with about 6”s. You can bet…

It looks like the major snow event of this season is upon us. It can’t hurt the fishing. It’s been a tough go of it for most lately. If forecasters predictions are correct the Noc will be a mess. Stay tuned! Increasing your odds, -Blade

The warm but strong breeze out of the south calmed for a period of time today between 5 and 6pm. Then bam! 10mph sustained winds from the north with gusts up to 16mph overnight. That’s a bout half the speed that whipped through a couple nights ago, but there’s still nothing calm about it. The…

The last two days on The Noc have been as windy as it gets. Friday night was definitely a test for those anglers out all night. If you made it through that, you can probably make it through anything. I guess it could’ve been colder. It warmed up today and the forecast says a high…

Yesterday we had a high of 40° with hardly a breeze, but by midnight the temps dropped right down, the wind picked up and we were back to normal on the Noc. And the wind blew…all day. The snow drifts got bigger and harder and that brings out the shovelers. So truck travel seems to…
