Walleye Lodge. http://www.walleyelodge.com/ Right around Christmas. You won't have to travel far on the ice to get into fish.
Thanks for the info Bob! We usually fish out of a flip over style shanty. Am I understanding you correct that I need a snow machine to even do this? How far from the lodge do you have to go to find fish? I have heard that some of the best fishing on the lake is near/in Bergland Bay at the north end of the lake where Maple Ridge is located. Contour and vegetation maps I have found online seem to support this. I get that Gogebic is a huge lake, but I am up for a walk on the ice if necessary. Am I missing the point?…Is the snow just too deep to even consider pulling a flip over on foot? Is the lake just too big and the fish too far from shore for this to be feasible?I have access to an ATV, but in more than a foot of snow it is worthless. Unfortunately I do not have access to a snowmobile…Thoughts?
R3Kenned-- I have fished Gogebic numerous times in open water and a few times thru the ice. I have only seen 1 northern pike in all my trips. I don't think Gogebic is a good lake for lots of pike action. The ones that are in there tend to be big, but I do not think there are very many of them. Maybe I am wrong, but before you drive all the way up there from Motown you should check with the various bait shops.
