Gail Englund of Grand Marais shared this picture that she named “grouse at my house.” She said she tried to get a group shot of the seven ruffed grouse who visited her yard, but couldn’t catch them all.

Jon at Buck’s Hardware Hank has this report:

Fishing has slowed quite a bit as a lot of people are settling in for the grouse and deer archery hunts. There are still some going out looking for some dinner.

Walleyes are still a bit slow everywhere, but in Poplar Lake fish were being caught around 18 to 22 feet with a jig and minnow. Devil Track reports a few being caught in 15 feet or so with jig and minnow or crawler.

Some action in Crescent was also found in 20 to 25 feet with a jig and minnow. Trestle Pine was going fine in 12 to 18 feet of water using a crawler and spoon or jig. Trout Lake was also good in about the same depths.

Esther Lake was reporting some rainbow action about 20 to 25 feet deep using crawlers and jigging Swedish Pimples.
