Title: Late season sleepers
Post by: reit38 on Aug 26, 2020, 04:34 PM

Looking for info on sleeper shacks to accommodate 10-12 guys with a decent  late winter bite. Like to stay under 6 hrs from central iowa.

Most of MN is required to have houses off the first week of March. Northern Minnesota (Leech lake and north) has an extra week or so. Inland lakes close last weekend of Feb for walleye, pike and bass.   So everyone is targeting sunfish, crappie, or perch after February, unless you are on a border water body ie- Lake of the Woods, Big Stone, Mississippi River on the boarder sections.
