The buddy system is still the best plan for going off road, with one vehicle breaking the trail and the other vehicle following behind with a tow rope and a shovel, just in case the first vehicle gets stuck.</p> <p>Walleye fishing had slowed down considerably in many areas with the extended period of cold weather, but the mid-January thaw helped improve the bite in many areas this past week. </p> http://mnfishingreport.com/topic/black-duck-area#post-18 Tue, 28 Apr 2009 20:57:57 +0000 mnfishingreport 18@http://mnfishingreport.com/ <p>BLACKDUCK AREA The lakes are open and most anglers have started trying the shallow bays. The bite was pretty limited early in the week, but work those shallow lakes such as Gull and Turtle River for crappies by this weekend. </p> http://mnfishingreport.com/topic/bemidji-area#post-17 Tue, 28 Apr 2009 20:57:13 +0000 mnfishingreport 17@http://mnfishingreport.com/ <p>BEMIDJI AREA The small lakes are open and the big lakes only had floating ice early in the week. By this weekend, the area should be ice-free.</p> <p>The crappies have yet to be found in shallow water, but look to the bays on Rabideau Lake, Midge Lake, and Hennepin Lake to be the first spots that produce panfish. </p>
