Fishing Report

The first weekend with our rentals on the ice and the reports were great.   We had one group stay in two of our ice houses that caught over 100 walleye this weekend@!!!    Bite is good on the flats as well as the breaks and a number of tullibee, northerns and eel pout’s were also caught.   Ice is improving daily and we will be measuring ice in the next two days in anticipation of getting out light trucks and single axel wheelhouses.    Aside from bridging our access, we have no issues around the flats on the north end and the ice is good and consistent.

Our access is now open to 1/2 ton trucks and single axel wheelhouses.   With the ups and downs in the weather the week, we expect to have to make some adjustments to our shoreline bridge so we ask that everyone be cautious when pulling a wheelhouse on the ice.   10 MPH MAXIMUM!!!

We pulled houses 189, 167, 105, 196, 54, 233, 146, 155.    We have a few houses still to heavy to pull and a number of houses #159, 98, 142, 173, 63, 171, and 111 that need repairs before they are pulled.    Our guys will be working on blocking and banking today.   We look forward to a great upcoming weekend.

Activities at Red Door

The Red Door Resort offers a number of activities at or near the resort. Our swimming beach has a sandy lake bottom that stretches out from shore. Activities available at the main resort include a playground, basketball, and gaga ball pit.

Mille Lacs Lake features a world renowned fishery and is also great for recreational use, including swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, sailing, wind surfing, kayaking and canoeing. Off the lake there are walking, hiking and snowmobiling opportunities; many of the trails wind through hundreds of acres of beautiful state land and are accessible year round. The area around the resort has a high concentration of sugar maples, which means that, in the fall, the area has some of the most vibrant colors in the state.

The resort is only minutes away from excellent hunting land, state parks, and golf courses. Further afield, you can access the Grand Casino Mille Lacs, Brainerd International Raceway, Paul Bunyan Land, Wealthwood Rod and Gun Club, and the Mille Lacs Indian Museum.
