We have been driving for what seems like days on our way to Devils Lake! Long boring drive so I thought I post a few pictures so far. Spent our first night in Walker, Minnesota so we could do a little shopping at Reeds Family Outdoor Center. What a store!! Just glad it’s not closer to home, I was like a kid in a candy store!! I’ll post fishing pictures tomorrow when we finally get to fish, we are going to spear fish a few days too! Can’t wait!!
now if i had a good opportunity to go there i would ice fish again. I've watched shows where they were getting some real hog perch out of it. good fishing guys and be safe.

We are having a blast even though it’s minus 10 and strong winds! We are fishing in a Snobear and it’s 60 degrees inside! The perch come in spurts with several jumbos and all the walleye have been small. We are not going to spear till later in the week, I’ll post more pictures later.
Definitely want to come back but I just ordered a new toy that will take a while to be built that’s going to be a game changer for our ice fishing season and it’s going to be hard to leave Erie to go play elsewhere. We kinda did a custom package, 3 days of perch fishing, 3 days of spear fishing with a couple extra days at the lodge. All the guides here work there butts off not only to put you on fish but to clean your catch and they even cooked our catch for us tonight! The fish cleaning house is amazing to see the guides clean hundreds of fish in minutes! Mark Bry runs a tight ship and everyone is very professional and knowledgeable. I’m sure I’ll be back!
They also have their vehicles set up a little different than ours!! Doesn’t everyone have a Vexilar mounted on the dash and a Lowrance on the center console??!!
Awesome trip! I was debating on doing it this year but just wasn't sure if it was worth the money for perch.....after seeing these pictures and reading your reports it is definitely something I need to do!
Well I’m officially addicted to spear fishing, it is awesome!! Collected the fish decoys and spears for years but this was my first time spearing!! Way more fun than ice fishing, wish it was legal in Ohio!!!

You guys put the smacked own on those pike! Were they all speared? Or were some caught with rod and reel?. Any sturgeon in Devil's Lake? That for sure would be addicting.
