    Must be some good ice out there on the main lake. I saw a few guys over the cribs at kamp’s this afternoon. If you were out there let us know how much ice there is. Good Luck and be safe

    YIKES! I don’t think we ever ventured out onto the main lake this early. I was just over there last Friday and it was still all open water…Make sure your walking on footsteps i guess! Good Luck!

    That is kind of what I was thinking. I will not be going out onto the main lake for a while. There are still eyes to had on p4.

    Few folks wandering out that way again this morning. I’m not quite that brave yet. (or that light I guess.)

    I fished in Butch’s Bay yesterday afternoon for a couple hours, and there’s about 6″ of good ice in there. Felt good to get our for the first time. Kept 8, mostly crappie with a few decent ones. I’ve heard that morning bite has been better. Plenty of people out, so where’s the reports?

    Didn’t keep a limit so I could take my son out after school. We hit the Cut Off for just a bit before dark, and nothing happening there. About 3″ of ice there.

    Pic from yesterday. I didn’t think to take a picture until after I already had the bigger gill fileted. One of these times I’ll actually take the camera out with me.

    Just jigging. It’s enough of a zoo out there without chasing tip-downs, and was just a last minute trip anyway.

    You’ll know where to find me…

    Nice report guys! Once Russ gets the shack out, I’ll drive out a say hello and maybe drag the tip ups along.

    As a fellow Minnesotan I can say, Pete moved back to the right side of the border.

    Those poor P2 walleyes wished he would have stayed in Menomonie.

    Ventured out for a few hours on saturday night in the blizzard. Only caught one gill and a pike. Obviously could not do any hole hopping, just set up the shack and hoped we would not blow away. The snow was really deep and the weight was pushing a lot of water up out of the holes and on to the surrounding area. We had about 6″ of ice.
