First ice is the best time to hit Upper Red Lake, start in 6-8’ of water and keep moving out. Tip your Jigging Rap with a minnow head. I like to put a small ball bearing snap at the jig or tie direct about 2’ up a small Barrel swivel. Good Luck!

Early ice on Upper Red Lake is some of the best Walleye Fishing in the State. Start in about 8 feet of water and drill out a area. Tip it with a minnow head and drop your spoon down to the bottom, let it hit bottom a couple times and reel up tell it is up about two feet and jig slowly. When the fish comes on keep jigging just like you have been, don’t slow down or stop. Make sure you one hooks of the treble is square on the back side so it flutters correctly if not turn it so it is. Good Luck!
