    UPPER PENINSULA Fishing Report Jan/22/09

    Posted by David Domka on January 22, 2009

    Portage Lake - Fishing has been spotty with a few walleye caught in the early morning or late afternoon. Most are jigging spoons tipped with a minnow in 14 to 25 feet of water. Pike fishing in Chassell Bay has been good most days with a few 12 pounders caught over the last week. Try a big sucker minnow on a tip-up in 6 to 14 feet of water.

    Little Bay De Noc - Catch rates have increased as the temperatures climb. Anglers are ice fishing throughout the Bay and as far south as Portage Point. Warmer weather bought good walleye catches off Kipling and the mouth of the Escanaba River. Off Kipling, try jigging in 24 to 35 feet of water with Moon Shines. Near the mouth of the river, try jigging in 25 to 30 feet of water for big walleye in the 6 to 10 pound range. Perch anglers reported fair to good catch rates for jumbos in 11 to 27 feet of water when jigging minnows with orange or blue tear drops. Good pike action just south of Hunters Point in 10 to 17 feet of water. Whitefish action is just getting started off Sand Point.

    Munuscong Bay - Catch rates for walleye were fantastic before the cold front came in. Since then, harvest has dropped a little and the walleye have scattered. Any location seems to be good when jigging in 4 to 6 feet of water.

    Cedarville and Hessel - Anglers fishing Musky Bay were taking excellent catches of perch before the cold front came through. Catch rates have since slowed but the action was still rated as fair to good. Target 10 to 14 feet of water with wigglers or wax worms.

    Brevoort Lake - Is producing some nice bluegill from the northwest corner near the campground and walleye along the east shoreline.
