Pretty quiet on this thread. Was out today at Shields. Caught a couple small eyes and had a few other bites. Fish that I marked weren't really aggressive. Had fun though. Always good to get out!

Any recent reports on access at blackstrap? Wondering if it is possible to drive on with a 4x4 truck and which access points i might have better luck getting on and getting around at. I am going to try and take my 2.5 yr old son out on sunday i think if its not too windy and being able to drive on would be much more preferable. Also getting stuck would really suck. I think i will have at least one buddy with me but i really dont want to get stuck haha. If driving on at blackstrap is sketchy at best i may have to try another reservoir close the city. I would be fine sticking to a well traveled trail and just pulling off to fish along it, if any of the access points have a good trail going?

I am wondering if we might gain some ground on the accumulated snow with this really nice weather.

Thanks!

Poor fishing times for the strap. First light or last light.

How's the water clarity with these warm temps and fast run off? I'm assuming it's getting a bit cloudy already?

Don't believe the Shark! If there's no picture there's no fish. He can't be trusted!

Want to take my wife and kids this Saturday afternoon. Is it good to walk on at the boat launch south of the hill? Thanks all. Good luck.

Anyone know if you can get on at the north end and do you need an extention on your auger?

BigJumb · « **Reply #290 on:** Mar 11, 2015, 08:26 PM »

Drove on north end yesterday and didn't need an extension.

gman51 · « **Reply #291 on:** Mar 12, 2015, 10:11 AM »

that time of year.... got out last night and did good on the walleye bite. with the warm temps and the bites lasting longer into the night you can really take advantage hole hoping.started around 5:30 no need to go earlier and fished til 8.caught 7 walleyes.

Guys driving out today and did well I seen on another site, a bit of water to drive through at the shore but good to go.

gman51 · « **Reply #297 on:** Mar 14, 2015, 12:12 PM »

IMO unless your going to get your permy off i would be walking on.unless you have a quad or sled. seen some weird stuff over the years.those cracks you see mid winter all over the ice that look like they go to the bottom of the ice open up first and are very week spots so that 40" of (soft) ice around them is sketchy. I'm sure there are some of you out there with bigger balls but one things for sure if you did go through with your truck you will probably only do it once...lol be safe people and or smart.

Captainmorgan · « **Reply #298 on:** Mar 14, 2015, 08:03 PM »

lots of trucks out at Evans road today. Talked to a few guys, didn't sound like the fishing was too hot. Fished for an hour or two mid day. Had a few on the flasher. No bites. We walked out, brother wasn't too interested in driving his 3/4 ton out. Haha

saskbucks · « **Reply #299 on:** Mar 15, 2015, 09:06 AM »

Spent a few hours just out from the boat launch. Caught a couple decent perch. And even met another forum member. Pretty cool stuff. Lots of standing water. Saw lots of trucks by Evans.
