No full sized vehicles on the west side that I saw. The shallow walleye bite was about as good as I’ve ever seen it!
any details? did you try the mud flats at all?
We never got more than a quarter mile off shore out of Garrison. 14′ of water. BIG minnows, both suckers and shiners, on tip ups. My legs are sore from running down flags. We ran into one of the best shallow water walleye bites I’ve ever experienced on Mille Lacs with lots of fish in the 23″ – 26″ range.
Awesome stuff James, I’ll be driving out from the east tomorrow early am headed for the mud to start. I’ll definaty have the dvr set.
Hey James, get up here to Duluth and do another show with Grant! The walleye bite is hot!

As of yeterday there were various resorts lettting 1/2 ton trucks out. We found 14″ of ice and some eyes willing to bite.

As James said ATVs only at this point from Garrison but even with ATV please be extremely careful out there. With the extremely cold temps there are many VERY active cracks on the lake right now. During the day as temps rise they will push together and cause a heave but after dark when temps drop the ice will contract and a spot that you may have crossed easily during daylight could have opened up a couple feet wide.
With below zero temps in the forecast again unless you really know your stuff about how a big body of water like Mille Lacs can change I highly reccomend paying the $10 road fee to a resort to know you’re on a safe road
