How much snow is on the ice now (Gull, NL, Round) (I realize it's snowing now too). Is ATV travel still decent if you're not doing long runs?

Thanks all!

Hey Tahoe, seems your asking for lakes around brainerd?  I am not certain on ice travel conditions on those lakes.  Although there should be plenty loose snow for sleds, but we have getting snow every day since sunday.

 

Leech last weekend you could get around quite easily with whatever mode of transportation you chose.

Thanks for the update ANYFISH2.  I plan on heading up to the east side of leech this weekend.  Do you think there is still a possibility of getting around with a truck after the snow fall this week?

I not real sure how much snow the leech area recieved.

If it is like what we got in the Randall/Lincoln area, 4-6 inches, travel should still be good. although i would bet there will be some deep drifts in areas to watch for.

Thanks ANYFISH2 I appreciate it.

Your welcome, good luck.

Any update? How are things looking?

Was on Leech this weekend out of Trappers landing. Pretty slushy now but you should be able to get around most anywhere. There are still some deeper drifts and ice heaves to watch out for but we made it out to Huddle's reef with no issues pulling a 22' tandem.

Are you able to get around on most lakes in the area with a truck?? Coming up for some lake hopping this weekend.

I would think so still, most of the slush is frozen up now. You might break through in some spots where the melted water hasn't frozen completely though. Just be cautious as always and give the lake a good survey before you head out.

I'd say yes. Temps have finally dropped. Things should be mostly froze by now I would think.

If your going out of Trappers watch out for the spot behind pipe island on the road... There's no cones or anything I put my chisel right through the center of it and felt bottom...Hug the right side...Couldn't believe there wasn't anything marking it.

      What a difference a day makes.  Fishing was very slow today.  Biggest I caught was only 13 inches.  Marked a lot of fish but couldn't get very many to bite.   The wind was very strong today and did cause a little bit of drifting, but travel is still good on the latke.  Just avoid the snow banks and drifts.  Saw one house get pulled off the lake, and didn't see any new houses come out before I left the lake at 4pm.  Lots of snowmobiles and trailers in Tower.  At least the city and lake will be busy with those.   Good luck fishing if you go out the last weekend of the winter season.

      Ice condition didn't change much in the last week as shown in the McKinley Park photo from today.  The holes in my house froze all the way down in the last six days; 40 inches of ice now.  I drilled my two holes 24 inches and cleared the shavings out before reaching water.  Much cleaner way in a permanent house.   Fishing was pretty good today.  Caught two 24" walleyes, including the 5#-7oz fatty pictured.  Also caught a 19 incher.  Best bite was from 11 to noon.  Much better action with chubs than shiners today.  Never tried the pike suckers I had.   Good luck fishing the last weekend this winter.  Going to be very windy Friday, but drifting shouldn't b a problem since there is no loose snow on the lake.  Saturday and Sunday look to be very warm.  Still about 35 houses left out from McKinley Park.

      Too bad she’s after big game when she leaves home.  Your one eyed trouser trout might not lure her in. 😉
