Yesterday, fishermen had decent action. Some slots were caught, but the majority were smaller. A couple of fishermen also ended up with some decent Perch.

I spent the day smoothing out the rougher ice spots on the roads and will continue today. We didn’t make much, if any, ice out there over the weekend and probably won’t until the weather turns colder. Fortunately, that is going to happen this week. We will check ice depths as it turns colder, see what we end up with towards the weekend, and decide what we will do then. Ice depths currently are between 9″-12″.  The thinner ice is out the farthest, and the 12″ ice is within 200 yards from shore. Most ice is 10″-11″ now.

We will continue with ATV and portable fishing for now. Small wheelhouses (14′ and under pulled by ATV or SxS) can also be accessed.  But there will be no cars or trucks at this point. We do have our smaller “basic” houses out for rent. We can shuttle gear in and out if required, but customers need an ATV to have it out there in case of an emergency to get to shore.

Keep a Tight Line!
