Fishing Report, November 25
This last week has seen some really good ice fishing trips! Ice is very solid and the fish are active. With cold weather in the extended forecast, I would expect the ice to keep growing and the fishing to remain great!
Fishing Report, Whitefish
The Whitefish area has some really good options for ice fishing. North of town there is good ice fishing for perch, pike, and even lake trout. Whitefish Lake is still a good option for targeting lakers out of a boat using spinning gear. Hopefully in the next few weeks, Beaver Lake will be a safe option for Kokanee Salmon and Perch.
Fishing Report, Kalispell
Perch and Pike are very active west of Kalispell. Deeper water than you would think… I haven’t really been finding good numbers of fish in the shallow water. Look out off the weed beds and you should start finding fish. Same for trout… most fish seem to be moving out in the deeper stuff and away from the weeds. Edges of the thick weed beds have been the most productive for me.
