We are seeing video feeds of anglers, armored in chest-waders, spud poles in hand chiseling away at river ice trying to clear launch pads at boat ramps on the Rainy River.
Quietly in the background… Between lances with the wrecking bars… Guns N’ Roses drones “Just a little patience, yeah”…
Hello sportsfans. River fishing on the Rainy this spring has been a test of patience.
“It’s open… It’s frozen… It’s open… It’s frozen…” You get the idea.
The ten-day forecast for Lake of the Woods looks like a warm-up back to the forties and possibly some low fifties.
“Just a little patience, yeah”. Thanks Guns N’ Roses.
