march trip

[walli'd]

had a trip planned for march 26 - 30. we are comming from 8 hours away. do you think the fish and weather will cooperate, or should we cancel out and reschedule for later date? going to stay and put in at wild wings marina. is there still ice in the marinas? thanks for any advice.

Gentlemen, If your looking for a good time frame for a hot walleye bite on or around the reefs, it would be of my opinoin to try and make your trip the 2nd or 3rd week of April in lieu of the last week of March. Historically, (the past 30years) you can set your clock by it. When the water temp hits 40 degrees, game on.. Bring your purple haired jigs.........

i agree. mid april. catch fish till you think your arm will fall off. wild wings is an excellent marina. good luck

[Rod Bender]

Wild Wings is a good marina. Turtle Creek Marina, just 1/2 mile west of Wild Wings has nice facilities, warm showers, camp ground, cleaning stations, nice shop, friendly ownership and reasonable rates.
