Good morning to all!
Welcome to another edition of the Wigwam
Fisherman’s Blog. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! This past week has been a roller coaster ride at the Wigwam Resort and I’ve loved every minute of it. Last weekend we had a full house at the Wigwam Resort and what a time it was. The fishing was fantastic, the food was phenomenal, and the company was the best ever. I wanted to thank all of our guests for being both great and gracious guests while they allowed us to be apart of their vacations. Just as we try and make your vacation great, you make it so easy for us to want to be the best that we can possibly be, to ensure each and every one of you have a great experience up here on Lake of the Woods at the Wigwam Resort…thank you once again.
This coming weekend is New Years and I hope every one has their “New Years resolutions” all figured out…I do, and it involves trying to get out and fish as much as humanly possible…haha.
No matter what it is, I hope that every one will be able to stick with it and really implement it into their lives…good luck all.
Over New Years we will be having the band “The Night Hawks” playing with us for three nights in a row…Thursday (December 31), Friday (January 1) and Saturday (January 2). We have a packed resort with over 120 people staying with us and the rumor is that every one from town is also coming to pay us a visit…it should make for a couple fun and eventful nights over here. I look forward to seeing each and every one of you out here to bring in the New Year!
The lures that have been working well are the “Stop Signs”, “Demons” and “Chubby Darters”.
You want to be using anything that glows right now to get the best success possible…white, green and pink have been the best!
Announcements…If you’re looking for some great ice fishing deals, checkout the current December specials we are offering on our website http://www.wigwamresortlow.com/. We are running a December special that will give you a discount on packages purchased for January and February 2010. The specials will only last through the rest of December…you can’t beat them! Also, every Vikings game this season, we will have drink special, specials on our bar dining menu, and prizes to give away. This will make for some pretty crazy Sunday afternoon/nights and Monday nights…LETS GO VIKINGS!!!!

Daily Fishing Report: Today we will have sunshine and clouds mixed with wind chills may approach -10F, high 8F with winds NW at 10 to 15 mph. Tonight should be mostly cloudy skies, low -3F with winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Tomorrow will have considerable clouds early, some decrease in clouds later in the day, high 14F with winds S at 10 to 15 mph. Tomorrow night should be partly cloudy during the evening followed by cloudy skies overnight, low 6F with 
winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph. Wednesday should be cloudy, highs in the mid teens and lows in the low single digits. Thursday we should see a few snow showers, highs in the mid single digits and lows -7 to -11F. Friday we should have a mix of sun and clouds, highs 2 to -2F and lows -9 to -13F. Two evenings ago (Christmas day), I had the opportunity to speak with a number of the locals as they come off the ice and I was able to pull a large amount of valuable information from them. Also I was able to get out and fish for the past few days, so now you will get a first had account of what I experienced. All the action is still taking place, west of Pine Island and north of Morris Point Gap. From 7 to 9 am you will want to be fishing in 12-16 feet of water and then after that move to 24 to 30 feet of water till 3 pm and then move back in to the shallows for the last evening bite. The fish have been moving out a little bit further every day. Another place to keep on the radar is Lighthouse Gap, right on the US/Canadian line in 
22 to 28 feet of water. The lures showing the greatest success rate are the “Stop Sign”, “Demon” & “Chubby Darter” (all can be purchased at the Log Cabin Bait store approximately ¾ of a mile before the Wigwam on 172). Yesterday the bite was a tad bit slow because of the massive snow storm we had roll through are area. We anticipate it to pick up here in the next few days…it was hot and heavy until the storm started, so I hope she calms down a little bit so we can get back to the great fishing we were having pre-storm. You will want to get anything that glows right now, whether it is white, pink or green. The ice thickness out there is currently 16-18 inches. Well today I started to see a number of larger trucks pulling houses out on the ice today, so the road must be open. I have yet to get the verbal confirmation from the road management crew, but it looks as if it is open for business. Don’t miss out on this great fishing that we’re having on Lake of the Woods…come visit us today at the Wigwam Resort on Lake of the Woods!
