More opener pick

The opening two days were pretty good for everyone here at WIBR. Lots of slot fish and great weather. The water level is up and still rising a bit but hopefully it will at least stabilize soon. The pictures below are from the Krenz group. Long time opening weekend guests and friends.

Fishing Opener 2014

It was a beautiful day. Warm and sunny with no wind.  The fishing was decent too. Most groups did at least OK with some doing very good. The water level is still high and rising a bit.   . 

Almost!!

We could not quite get out from here this morning. It does look clear from the North landing off Pine Road. I am thinking it should move out or melt enough today to take off from our landing. Hopefully  will have some nice walleye pictures to post later today.

South End is wide Open

The ice at  the South end of White Iron is all gone. The balance of the lake can’t be far behind. The fog is making it difficult to see how much ice is really gone on our end of the lake. Maybe this afternoon we can get a better look.

Looking better, open water in site.

It looks very  good that the south access boat landing and open water to the river and many fishing areas  well past Ring Rock will be available on Saturday for fishing opener.  We were there this morning and the only ice was some that blew in because of the East winds.  The wind direction is […]

South End Ice is moving out

I was at the south landing this morning. There is quite a bit of open water and the ice is floating and patchy. With some wind I think it will be no problem fishing the river at opener.  The open water has moved well past Ring Rock so again the right wind should take the […]

Soft water is in sight.

I was just at the South landing on White Iron. There is open water at and through Ring Rock Narrows. Through by binoculars I could see the shimmer of open water all the way to Bear Grease Island and around the island. There is also open water to the south end which I’m sure is […]

Ice Report 5/2/14

The ice continues to pull away from shore in many places and the color seems to get grayer each day.  As you can see from the picture the ice to the South of Silver Rapids Bridge has receded another 50 yards or so. In talking to Minnesota Power who control the water flow at Birch […]

Ice pictures

These pictures were from Silver Rapids Bridge a couple of days ago. Lots of open water to the north (down stream). Actually today  there is a bit more open water to the south of the bridge. . 

Ice conditions on White Iron

Currently White Iron is fully covered in ice.  It is not great ice meaning there are multiple layers of frozen snow, slush and ice. I would assume that there is only 12 to 14 inches of “good” ice. With that in mind it will melt fast as the temps rise over the next few days. […]
