Steve_R Posted August 9, 2010 Report Posted August 9, 2010 Hi im heading up to Red Cedar Lake in alittle over a week.Just wanna Know if anyone knows how the fishing is?
Nipfisher Posted August 10, 2010 Report Posted August 10, 2010 I've heard the fishing is slower then past years but they are stillcatching them. Watch out for rocks. The water is pretty low and even regulars have found new hazzards.
Gerry Posted August 10, 2010 Report Posted August 10, 2010 The fishing has been good this year but the water is quite low....down 3 feet from normal levels. Where are you staying at red Cedar?
Steve_R Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Posted August 10, 2010 We are staying at Mountain Home Lodge...never stayed there before
Gerry Posted August 10, 2010 Report Posted August 10, 2010 Mountain Home Lodge has new owners this year or last so can't speak to their business manners. The place was good (nice cottage) when a friend stayed there some 10 years ago. I'll be on the south end of the lake from the 20th to the 30th of August.

bridge Posted August 11, 2010 Report Posted August 11, 2010 Been to Red Cedar many times, but never in the late summer. My buddies and I have have a book full of memories from this lake. The bass fishing is good and there are some pigs to be had. There are tonnes of pike in the usual hammer handle size but two of the biggest pike I've ever seen have been out of this lake. Wallies have always been hit or miss for us but thats not to suprizing as we never really fish for them except for at Red Cedar. Saying that though we have had good and bad years. There is also many,many good sized perch if your looking for food fish. Not sure how the worms in them will be at this time of year though. Can't really tell you where to fish as I've never been there this late but good luck and watch out for floating logs if theres a storm!

bd001ca Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 Hi Guys, I will be at Red Cedar Lake Camp starting August 28. Gerry, where do you stay at? Do you have a cottage? Keep an eye out for a blue metallic Triton Walleye boat, that will be me. I am hoping the 3 feet down does not cause too many problems. I remember some areas out to the fishing grounds are only 3 feet deep . Later. Brian
