Looking for a Green Lake Ice Report


Recommended Posts

Have you been out to Green? Thinking of going tomorrow out just off the public launch area on the breakline. Anybody know how the ice is?

I'm heading out there this morning. Look for the blue clam denali..I heard reports of 5-6" last weekend so I would assume 7+" but check as you go

8" of good ice. I snowmobiled out. One of the best crappie days I had out there. Couldn't even get my jig down there before my bobber would go down!

WHen i was out there on saturday there was about 10.5, so i would say its very close to that, this warm up will not help that though.

When I was out on Saturday, I was on 10.5" over 24 FOW. Four wheelers everywhere and, there was a Ford F150 out there... to thin for a truck if you ask me. I left around 7:00pm and checked thickness in a lot of open holes. Found 8"-10.5" of ice with a lot of standing water on top, 1"-2" in a lot of places. Another warm day on Sunday, and I would think the standing water started to really eat at the ice. Pretty sketchy right now after this warm spell. I'll probably wait til the weekend to go again.

I will be going out tomorrow with a couple members from here, so I can give a report. Bring a buddy or 2 if you go out please and bring all the safety gear.

And it always blows my mind every year, but why is there always some I D I O T out in a vehicle waaay too heavy for the ice thickness? I sometimes feel like they are putting my life at risk right along with theirs when they drive close to me...

They were driving trucks all around the lake, 2 weeks ago when i was sitting on only 10 inches of ice, out of their minds if you ask me.

Has anyone been out on Green lately? Just wondering what the thickness is with all of this warm weather we have been having. Any spots on the lake to avoid? Hoping to head out there tomorrow.

This snow is going to hide some of the dangers. Be careful and go slow. Take a friend with and safety gear.

      What I really wanna know is:   How’d get that lattice to curve like that?  Bomb diggity!

      Fish Newton lake is great for walleyes. Everyone goes to basswood and forgets about newton. The late fall pike bite in pipestone is amazing and it’s a great time to catch the big walleyes are up there feeding too.

      It would cost you 830 bucks to watch every game this NFL season under multiple platforms.   I don't have peacock or espn+ or whatever they want me to have, so I'll just have to relent on being able to watch a few games.  I refuse to cave in to their demands just to watch the Packers play the Eagles in Brazil.  I think last year peacock had the exclusive rights to the Miami/KC playoff game too.  I'm sure that will occur again in January.

      Well it's a win, but it wasn't to Purdy with all the turn overs and penalties!  
    • leech~~
      Oop, must be another Vikings game.  So far it's been a Prudy game, Viks!  😁
    • leech~~
      Another prediction.   Under the cloud of "Woke Inclusion" Just like the Mn state flag and the Mn Twins, the Vikings name will be going away in a few years! Their already making them look like Snow flakes!  We can't have the uniforms of angry Norwegian people!  Sounds funny but. Wait for it! 😒

      Just sayen, not all the loyal old fans, can pay for the NFL viewing package!

      New frontiers.  Expand the market; make more money.  Despite some PR moments, they’re not in it for charity.   BUT, they might want to take a moment and see how that worked out for NASCAR.  Not that having to buy premium channels to watch races was the only problem but it sure helped kill the fever for a lot of people.
    • leech~~
      Get ready. Any bets in a few years the average Joe NFL fans aren't going to be able to watch their local teams, unless it's pay for view!  Sounds like their greasing the wheels now.  There are 5 international games this year! ☹️ "The NFL will play a regular season game in Madrid, Spain in 2025, as the NFL prioritizes global growth and expands the International Games to new cities and markets around the world."

      I have gone into Basswood from Fall Lake. From Fall the first portage takes you into Newton and that is the easier of the two. The portage from Newton into Pipestone is the one with a hill. It is definitely harder! You also have to be careful when you go down the hill because the boat will pick up speed and can get away from you. Yes, you can get to Jackfish without going into Canada and there are signs letting you know where Canada is.
