Fishermen's Wharf Resort

FISHING REPORT

Fishing is still good. The deep water crank bite is excellent on 4 mile gravel in 28 feet. The slip bobber bite has moved to the top of the deep rock reefs in 28 to 29 feet. Red hook and leech is still the way to go. Smallmouth bass are on fire -  fish the 8 to 12 foot rocks with a tube jig.

A Few of My

Favorite Things
by Rob Passons
Mille Lacs Messenger 7/5/12

 

 

Let me make it clear from the start that I don't take bribes. Not that anyone's really offering, which offends me on some level. I mean, c'mon, am I not worth bribing? I'm a serious journalist, for crying out loud!

FINES DOUBLE FOR INVASIVE SPECIES VIOLATIONS
Mille Lacs Messenger 7/7
 
 

Civil fines for people caught violating the state's aquatic invasive species (AIS) laws will double on July 1, when new, tougher laws take effect, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced.

 

Minnesota law prohibits the possession or transport of any AIS in the state. AIS include zebra mussels, Eurasian watermilfoil and spiny waterfleas.

 

Earlier this month, DNR officials announced that the AIS violation rate among Minnesota boaters and anglers is at an unacceptable rate of 20 percent.
