What have we been up to???

LAKE CONDITIONS

We have more snow again this morning. That would bring us up to about 7 inches of snow I am guessing. This snowfall was light and fluffy.  The first 4.5 inches was wet and heavy with lots of wind.  We do have a crack between Twin Island’s and Gull Rock that is 10 feet wide at this point in time. There is a report from a snowmobiler that there is a crack between Arnesen’s reef and 16 mile that was 3 feet wide as of yesterday, 12.15.24.  So that being said we are not opening our access until these 30-degree temps change, which they will, and the ice conditions become safer.

SLEEPERS AND DAY HOUSES

We have been moving and shaking over the last week.  HUGE THANK YOU TO MATT, TOM S., JUSTIN, AND JAYDEN!  As of yesterday, we have all of our Sleepers and all of our Day houses out in our start up fishing spot.  Not all are set up as of yet but should have them set up over this next week.  All reservations are a go; however, this is December, and all reservations remain “BASED ON ICE CONDTIONS”.

WINTER LAKE ACCESS

Due to the cracks that are open we will be keeping our winter lake access closed until we see conditions improve.  Our winter lake access will be tracks only, if your track snow machine is able to pull your fish house you are able to bring your fish house out our access.  We have our winter lake access information line available 7 days a week/24 hour a day with the most recent update by calling 218-442-6661.    Dale checks the lake conditions every morning between 6 and 6:30 a.m. and with his report I update the winter lake access information for you each day.

 

Thank you to all who follow us, and we will continue to keep you updated the best we can!  Thank you to all who joined us this week for ice fishing.  Thank you for being flexible and staying in the sleepers on land and fishing in the day houses during the day.  We so enjoyed your company and thank you for coming to fish with us.

 

Dale and Connie along with all our team!  Thank you!

Webcam looks like the website has it offline again.

I checked the website and did find the live feed from our webcam show’s Twitch has us offline again.  I have placed a call to Wiktel and hopefully Dilon will have it back online again tomorrow.

It is all in Wiktel’s hand’s and they will get it back again.  Not sure why Twitch feed provider keeps going offline,

but Dilon will figure it out.

Hang in there with us – and thank you!!

We have one day house on the edge of the parking lot ready for ice.  Dale and Matt are out right as we speak checking ice.

We will keep you posted on our progress.  We know as of right now we are unable to get Sleepers out as of today, but as soon as ice conditions seems to be good we are ready to move them out and set them up.

We are certainly loving the -10 degrees today!!!
