    Tanner was thinking Red Door – and I was thinking Twin Pines , I don’t care either way…what do you think is the best option for catching eye’s / perch – mud , rock, gravel, or sand?

    Harry either one would be fine. Are we being portables with us to do some running? I just heard that Mac’s is pulling there houses out today. I would think rock at evening and mud during the day. Let me know. Sifty

    I just got off the phone with Linda @ Red Door – we are all set — 10X20 8 holer – 6 bunks. We can specify where we want the house on the flats that they work — given there’s safe ice of course… fish on! Definitely plan on bringing the portables and going mobile during the day…. hopefully not a ton of snow so I can use my ATV.

    The ice on french is not as thick as it is on the other lakes. I would try Shields for eyes……their bigger there!!
