ICE AND FISHING REPORT:


We have opened our road to all 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton, and 1 ton trucks. HOWEVER, 1/2 ton trucks are the ONLY trucks able to haul up to 21' wheelhouses.


We have plowed multiple rows about 10 miles from the lodge for wheelhouses to set up if they wish. We currently have about 16-20" of ice where we are traveling and fishing. Our ice road is a total of 13.6 miles from the lodge.


Fishing has been a little slow but, every day is a new day! Being aggressive and persistent, along with using electronics is vital during this time.


Good luck out there! Stay warm and fish on!

FISHING AND ICE REPORT:


Fishing has slowed down a bit since the beginning of the season. You have to work to get your bucket full but, as long as your're working for it you'll come back to shore with about 12-18 fish in the pail. We are having a lot more luck with the smaller jigs (glow worms, flying ants, mouse traps, jig n eye, etc.) topped with small minnows. Orange/black, pink, gold, and glow colors are hot! A lot of good dinner Saugers to be caught and some nice slot Walleyes!


We are still only allowing up to 3/4 ton trucks out but, they cannot haul anything. 1/2 ton trucks are able to haul wheel houses 16' and under. We have a plowed ice road out about 9 miles from the lodge and 8 miles from Morris Point.


There's currently 14-16" of ice where we are traveling and fishing but, we are still finding areas with 10" off of our plowed road. Once again, use caution and stay on the staked trail. Good luck out there!
