From the south shore, in front of Pine Island, best reports from anglers headed out 15 miles or more to clearer water.  Combo of walleyes and saugers.  Others headed up to structure such as Knight and Bridges or Garden Island and catching as well.  From Morris Point area to Zippel Bay, decent bite in a bit shallower, 17 – 28′.  Morning / evening bite in 15 – 18′.  Long Point and Arnesen’s still producing with reefs most consistent. On the Rainy River, frozen shiners in 16′ with orange or chartreuse has been the go to.  Please work through outfitters and bait shops and know where you are going on ice. Up at the NW Angle, overall, good fishing continues on the edge of structure in 25 – 28′.  Gold and glow red still consistent.  A mixed bag, with more walleyes than saugers.  Some jumbo perch, pike and eelpout mixed in.  Big crappies still going on Canadian side through NW Angle resort guide services.
