We heard rumors that fishermen couldn't launch boats on Lake Oahe due to high water. This is NOT the case. The ramps are constructed to accomodate high water conditions.
The high water does create some challenges for fishermen in that the water is slow to warm and generally cloudly. The Cheyenne is where we have been getting our fish still and it will be running pretty hard for a while. Still some good fishing in the lower third of the Cheyenne. Peak for this part of the Lake will again be later than usual.

Cabin Opening for 2011 Trucker's Tournament
A late cancelation has created a rare room opening for this years tournament. Give us a call if you need a place.
Early May, 2011 Report
We slipped up into the Cheyenne River yesterday. The weather was perfect. We caught three nice walleye, 25", 27" and 28", two smaller pike, lost a big pike and one white bass. We were using a jig/minnow in the Fish Gut area at about 15 feet. Here is a picture of the biggest walleye.
The water level is very high again this year. The eroding shale banks continue to mound up on the boat ramp, requiring regular removal, but we are keeping it open.

ROOM AVAILABLE FOR TRUCKERS TOURNAMENT
Due to a cancelation Pike Haven has a room available June 16th-19th. If you are fishing in the Truckers tournament or are interested in fishing in it and need a room, give us a call. I am sure it is going to go fast.

Pheasants Survive Winter Around Pike Haven
Our winter was worst than recent years, but due to excellent cover and a lot of grain left in the fields, pheasants have wintered well. We see lots of roosters and hens scurrying about, and hear cackling frequently. Hopefully the weather is favorable to a good hatch.
Lake Oahe Update
In the Little Bend area the ice is mostly gone on the south side, but mostly there on the north side. The dam area is mostly free of ice. We can't see into the Cheyenne River well enough to tell what is happening there. As far as fishing goes, we haven't been out yet, nor do I have any additional information over my last report. I was hoping to fish this weekend, but the weather is not cooperating.
