See the University of Minnesota snow depth map (link provided below) for snow depth reports. We are located in northeastern Becker County just west of Leech Lake. We often get snow by Thanksgiving and have snow through March. It is not uncommon for us to have snow when the Twin Cities have no snow. Give us a call or check out our website for snow conditions. The March 20th map shows us in a medium blue zone of 4 to 8 inches. We have 5 to 6 more inches fresh snow on top of this.

January 27th, 2008: This past weekend a group of fisherman caught this nice walleye on Sunday morning. They reported that the early morning and evening bight was the best and they viewed a good number of northern pike with their camera. Though the walleye bite was slow they did catch a couple of smaller ones and also said they did lose a couple of nice fish.
