Missing a boat?

Good morning Blue Lake!  It’s that time of year again…you know, when things just seem to go missing!  Things like pier sections, boats or swim platforms.  Our first misplaced item of the year is this Smoker Craft row boat.  It was found floating and partially submerged in the middle of the small side of the lake. Thanks to Ray Raffin you can find it on the shore of the Ritz!  

If you’re missing anything or find something where it doesn’t belong, please let us know.  

Oh, and as you can see there is still a little snow on the ground but I’m confident we’ll all be out on the lake again soon!

Have a great weekend!

Let’s chat about worms!

Fishermen love them and so do gardeners but there’s a new worm in town that isn’t so friendly! Known as crazy worms or jumping worms, they can cause havoc in garden landscapes as well as our beloved northwoods forests. This article gives you an good overview of the problems connected with these nasty worms, Jumping Worms: The creepy damaging invasive you don’t know. Please give it a read and do whatever you can to prevent the spread of these worms.

On another note, there was a quite a storm that swept through the area earlier this week. Power outages and significant tree/home damages occurred. Thankfully this one missed my house but others weren’t so lucky. You may want to have someone check your house if you haven’t already had the chance to do so!

On the bright side, the ice is out, the loons are back and Blue Lake is getting ready for Spring!
