Red Wing harbor

lake pepin should freeze over pretty soon. i think it is pretty close to being cold enough but it is the windy days that are keeping it open

Chill is one thing, but the lake was rolling real good today with lots of whitecaps. If the wind would disappear for a week with these temps, we’d have plenty of ice.

I was fishing one of the harbors in red wing yesterday off the docks and it was… windy. There were a few bluegills hanging around and they were tough to coax to bite. We caught about 30 fish with 3 larger than 6″. There was ice in the harbor, the middle was open. There were several places to drop a line without drilling.

I dont know which harbor I was in, there was a barge station and I got a free ride, all I know

I was told at the Walleye Searchers meeting tonight that the back channel ramp is not in good shape for putting a boat in right now.
Thanks, Bill
