I went to Elysian with my boat last week. Fished almost the whole lakeshore with floating raps and never had a bite. Didn't see anyone catch one on shore with live bait.

I was close enough to cast to shore was that to close?

Went to the MN River on the edge of St. Peter. Got one 14 inch sauger in about 2 hours yesterday afternoon. Didnt end up trekking over to Elysian. Just not enough time.

Yes, 5 - 9" is accurate in most places but there is still some 2 - 4" stuff out there.

2" still? I would sure think that after the past couple nights, there wouldn't be much <4" stuff out there. Maybe I'm wrong.

I haven't been on Elysian but on some other area lakes I've found some huge varience in ice, not sure if it was from the strong winds/snow cover or current/springs. One lake had up to 18" of frozen slush with only a few inches of ice and a few yards away there was 10" of good ice, as well as a spot with only 4".

It's still early ice and by no means stable.

Has anyone one been out there how is the travel pretty easy going are there roads plowed or is the snow pretty passable. A guy I work with said one of his friends has a house out there and they have been getting a few eyes just wondering if anyone has been out there and how they did. I myself have never fished and was just looking for a little info on were to go or to start.

I heard (through the grapevine) that the O2 was tested recently and it was down to 3.2 ppm. Last week it was at 6. Dropping fast!

That must be on the end opposite the aeration system.

There is one on each side. I wonder who took those readings? Can anyone confirm any of this?

      Table is updated below.  Opening day is likely in jeopardy.  Lots of good dates available for those sitting on the sideline.

      That's ok, got the Bear hunting out of my system years ago.  Still have some good spots on the GPS up in the Arrow head!  Did love me some good greasy bear roasts though!  😋

      Yes, I'm on the West End.  No crappies yet, but I caught a couple of Cisco's and some perch this morning. Been dealing with chores at the cabin since 10 AM, so not much fishing.

      Hard to tell exactly how much snow the way the wind was blowing it around, close to that I'll bet!  3 sleds went by earlier. Brian, are you on the west end? Did you fish?  Catch any crappies?

      I was on the lake this morning. There is still a lot of ice. I went down to the housing on my auger a couple of times.  I'm not sure how much snow we got yesterday and last night but it looks like around 7 to 8 inches at least.
