    11 Mile Marina Weekly Fishing Report 02/13/20

    MARINA HOURS: M-F 8:00AM to 4:00PM SAT/SUN 7:00AM to 4:00PM

    CURRENT CONDITIONS:: Ice thickness running 18 to 27 inches with up to 8 inches of snow on top of that. 

    TROUT - GOOD: Lots of fish caught in the South Park Ice Masters. Many running 2 to 4 lbs. Anglers report many different baits working. Pautzke Trout eggs did very well overall. We are sold out of jars but have some pre tied still available. Black Marabou jigs in 1/4 and 1/8 also did well along with Paddle Bugs, Kastmasters. and jigging Rapalas. Shallow water caught the biggest fish. Many on bait ie Pautzke Trout or salmon eggs, Gulp and Power Bait products.

    KOKANEE SALMON - FAIR: With the fresh snow on the lake the hike to the spots is brutal. Wax your skis. After a few strong anglers make it out follow the path of least resistance and help make a highway to the bite. We did OK before the snow and haven't made it back out yet. You can always seem to catch a couple but limits are elusive. The fish aren't elusive but their interest to bite is. Large schools show up but don't stay long. Spoons work best but pink sparkle tubes and white paddle bugs have caught a few for us. The Gulp Maggots in natural and Chartreuse have done well as a bait for kokes and Trout when the meal worms won't work. We have also had good luck with the Mummy Wax Worms in pink and orange. No tippage of hookage with baitage no biteage

    NORTHERN PIKE - FAIR TO POOR: Some improvement but that is relative to the time put in. Even the little ones are turning their nose. All you can do is try. Look to mid morning and early afternoon. Witchers Cove, Cross Creek, North Shore Marina and Coyote Ridge best bets.. We like Waterdogs or whole suckers. When it comes to Pike size matters. The dogs are just right and we finally got in the suckers of choice. Just the right size. 

    Visit the Marina website for their full fishing report and more information.

  • Icing Conditions

    Ice is never considered safe.  The Marina is reporting 17 to 26 inches of ICE.  

    We got another 5-6 " of snow last night and snowing off and on today.  Definately have snow on top of the ice. 

    All fishing access areas open roads are clear and dry with a few icy spots.

    If you decide to go out on the ice it is always at your own risk.  Use caution.  

    Ensure that you have the following:

    • A buddy with you;
    • 50 foot of rope;
    • Wear a life jacket, and;
    • Drill test holes as you are going out.  
    • Always avoid Pressure Ridges.

    Thank you and have a great winter and be safe!!!!

    See the Marina fishing report.

    The North Shore small boat cove has been plowed for ice skating.
