When
most anglers think of great Minnesota ice
fishing their thoughts immediately turn to Lake
Winnibigoshish. And there's no better
place to go for a Minnesota ice fishing trip
than McArdle's Resort on Lake Winnie.
Lake
Winnie ice fishing offers anglers the
opportunity to capitalize on one of Minnesota's
best fisheries. Jumbo perch, northern pike
and walleye are plentiful in Lake Winnibigoshish.
It
is important to note that in support of its lake
management plan for Lake Winnie, the DNR has
enacted a special regulation on Winnie's
walleye. Anglers must immediately release
any walleye measuring between 17" and
26" and may be in possession of only one
walleye over 26." See the
2008
Fishing Regulations for more
information. It is also important to note
that open season for walleye, northern pike,
muskie and bass closes on February 25,
2007. Anglers may still legally fish for
jumbo perch, crappie and panfish through ice
out.
