Awesome thanks guys.

Thank you so much. I’ve never ice fished it before. Going to try in out next week

Thanks for the report Allan yeah the whitefish out there have been slow ever since the flooding a few years ago and most of the died off. I think it will be a few more years before we can catch them consistently again.

Anybody have any recent updates on ice conditions?

what I don’t like is why are there more Wisconsin tribes netting mille lacs than Minnesota tribes? How long have tribes really been netting mille lacs? did they do it way back when? if so you can’t tell me that they crossed the st.croix to come net mille lacs.

Can you drive trucks on big Sandy yet? How’s the ice conditions and is there any slush?

I seen these on Facebook as well and ordered two of them lol

Excellent there was three of us and we were there the two days and we caught well over 200 fish. The biggest being 27 inches. We ate fish for dinner the one night and brought our limits home.

We were up Saturday and Sunday and we had 16 inches of ice in 26 feet just off of Adrians road

Just the back

Went out of wigwam this past weekend got back yesterday and there was 12 inches of ice with about a foot of snow on top. No slush at all where we were at and the bite was hot. Orange chubby darter worked best for me. Was out four days and at least two of them I caught over 100 fish myself.

The 22 in my opinion is the worst because it only goes to 60 feet and sometimes I fish deeper than that.

I have one and it works great way better than the fl-22 hd the I had before this

I have a garmin Oregon 550t with lakemaster chip and I Love the setup. works great.

How much ice is on the lake now?

Where are you guys located? I’m looking to fish red lakethe weekend of December4th or 13th.

I’ve always used electrical tape or ive seen some people use zip ties

Well our trip went pretty well. We got out there wednesday morning around 10:00am and we caught our limit by 3:00 pm for the 4 four of us. So we filleted them up and ate them so we could continue to fish for the other two days that we were up there. The next two days I don’t know what happened but the fish just weren’t where we were. The second day we only caught two fish all day a perch and a northern. the third day was a little better but not much. We ended up taking 10 walleye home. Overall a great trip and a great Experience. Will be doing it again in a week or two. Good luck fishing everyone.

i think people are just a little leary yet of the ice conditions and aren’t going out much yet because of all the heavy snow at first not building ice. then we got that rain which did a great thing for all of the lakes around up here by melting all of that snow. The reports will be more often now I think as the ice thickens up.

great report. thanks. was up around the same time but in our own house and had the same results but a little less. never the less it was very fun up there. glad to see you bring the kids out fishing also to keep the sport going for the younger generation.

What’s the thickness of the ice. I would like to bring up my Ultimate Lodge with my 2500HD Diesel. Will that work yet? I should say I need a consistent 16″ of ice.

Im out right now and where im at there is 18 inches.

I am currently up here right now. Yesterday fishing was great. Today its pretty slow. We are in 11 fow and there is 18 inches of ice where we are at.

Great post. Im on my way up there now. How much ice did you have?

My tow vehicle is a half ton pickup

Ok thanks guys. Im headed up right now going for whitefish and maybe some crappies

That really sucks. You would think people would be more respectful around here because you know as well as I do that they wouldn’t want people drilling holes near them if they were sitting there. I believe the rule is that a person must be only 10 feet from another person.

I love my vexilar fl-8 and have had no problems with it what so ever.
