Brr cold and fishing

Brr...We woke up to negative temps this morning and extreme wind chills.
Fishing has picked up over the last couple days. We moved our houses again. They are in 33-35 feet of water. Catching small sauger is still common but now there is a good mix of keeper walleye too. Slot fish are more readily caught now also.
Jigging gold and pink is drawing them in but the deadstick and live bait is what they are striking.
Our road is in great shape. However, the wind is strong which can cause big drifts at any time. If you head out on the ice road be sure to have extra layers and the resort phone number with you.
Stay safe and happy fishing!
