Sorry to ruffle some old feathers here, but does anyone have any knowledge on whether to expect another walleye shutdown on mille lacs this summer? Or possibly when this could be determined? The star trib wrote an article about it for the first time on March 21st last year, so maybe soon?
Looking to book a cabin on Mille lacs (anyone have a recommendation?) for the middle week of June, but really don’t wanna get burned and be forced to fish for <strong class=”ido-tag-strong”>bass
No worries, yes I think they will close it again. Even though we now know there is an amazing amount of perch in the lake, the DNR locked us into a 3 year deal behind closed doors. So the quota won’t be going up, and they will close it at least partially this summer, and next. Maybe with a new governor we can get some new DNR leadership that stands up for all the anglers of MN once this “deal” is up. Also, I think you’ll be fine in mid-June like BassAttack said, it will likely be later in the year after the 4th.
