Anyone been out to Stump Lake?
« on: Jan 30, 2015, 02:07 PM »
Heading out this afternoon after class for the weekend. Was planning on fishing devils lake but with the tournament going on saturday, i dont want to deal with crowds and trying to find a hotel room so I am going to go to stump lake. Has anyone been out there recently? Anybody have any tips for types of structure or depths to look for? Perch, Walleye, Pike, I'm not picky. Anything that gives a good tug on the line.

I've been to Trunk Lake over by the hill and it was good...
When there is ice on the lakes, I never make employee of the month!

Sorry I realize I should have specified further. Stump lake in North Dakota by devils lake. I figured it would have been easy to figure that out since devils lake is mentioned in the post and stump lake is a fairly large lake right by devils.

It helps if you put your location to at least say ND.  That said I haven't been over there in a couple of years. You might try sending Eyes R Bitin a PM and check out Perch Patrols website for fishing reports. Also check fishingbuddy for reports.

Reports I have read have been lacking to say the least. In my opinion there hasn't been a hot bite all year at Devils Lake or Stump. But if you're choosing between the two stump probably is the better option. I've been to Devils about 8 times this season drilling hundreds of holes with limited success. If you have the time I'd explore the smaller "chain" lakes connected to Devils. Most locals keep them a secret and I cannot turn you onto any in particular but they can have hefty walleyes in numbers.

If you do goto Devils Lake, six mile has been the best for me this year. Doc Hagens point

Going to Devils lake in 2 weeks.  Dad and Uncle flying in for first ever ice fishing.  Hope we can get a few.  We are staying at Woodlands.  Never fished there and if it slow at least I can spend some time with my dad and uncle.  Will post how we do.

You can check Woodland's website, they post a fishing report every 10-14 days.  I know it is not Stump specific but should give ya some ideas.

I posted a report on the lake and areas from last month and from what ive been told nothing has really changed. Stump is producing but just for perch in general not necessarily the big jumbos like everyone wants.
