March is a great time to enjoy winter in the U.P.!  The weather has been fantastic this whole week and it looks like it will be that way for a while.  With temperatures in the mid-forties all week, it’s sweatshirt weather according to Yoopers!  For those of you that are not familiar with the lakes in the area, here is a compilation of lakes and what fish can be found in them.  Be sure to get those last few chances of ice fishing while you still can!
