Where should a rookie fish near Winnipeg

[649Boys]

Hey guys,

Me and a few buddies are new to ice fishing. We tried fishing on the Red by the Selkirk steam plant last Saturday. We had no bites in a full day fishing there. We had frozen minnows for bait and tried jigs, pickeral rigs and ice fishing spoons (swedish pimple).

Does anyone have any recommendations of a better location near Winnipeg? or perhaps a better lure/bait? We're hoping to get out again this Saturday (if we don't get a blizzard) and try our luck again.

Thanks for any advice!

did you guys win the lotto?

try EOM (end of main) Selkirk

use jigs and livies

other than that head out to Lake Winnipeg, East side

I always seem to luck out at Morden Lake, its about 1.5 hours south west of Winnipeg. Its a nice walleye spot!
