Lot's of smaller lakes and ponds ice over during the night and mealt during the day.

Looks close, unless the weather man is right and we hit 60's next week.

We have 2" right now. Suppose to be -2 tonight...But the weather people could be wrong.

If it does hit -2, I expect at least another 1.5" of ice by morning.

Be safe.

I'm planning a trip up north next sunday and was wondering if the smaller lakes just north of Aikin will have enough ice to fish on (3" is enough).

I saw a couple of guys out on the ice in the narrows on Minnewawa. Anyone know how thick the ice is? If the warm up doesn't ruin the ice, I'm going to get out this weekend.

Out in the narrows already? I would be careful, but if it is on the lake, then the northerns and crappie will be biting smile.gif

I was able to fish on Hansen Last Sunday on a solid 3". Was wondering if this weeks daytime highs caused any setbacks in ice production. Anyone been poking around on any local lakes checking ice depth?

kb1965,
That would be great, I will do the same. I am going to head up to blind over lunch and punch some holes to check the ice. Do you ever fish Portage during hard water?

No, only been fishing on French and Gun. Mostly during the summer. I have hit both lakes last winter and did really good on Crappies. My in-laws own a cabin on French that I use as my base camp. Anyway French lake had 4" of ice on Friday afernoon. With the cold we had it should be up around 5 by now. I didn't get a chance to check Gun had to finish up deer hunting instead.

kd,
I got a quick question. I never fished early ice on french or gunn. Obviously I will be walking out this Friday. I know about the culvert that connects both lakes ,are there any springs or dangerous areas I should avoid? I've been up there in march when the ice is 2 feet thick and it seem pretty consistant across the lake. Your answer would be most appreciated. Thanks

If you walk out on French from the public acess stay towards the left. The culvert is on the right side as your are walking out onto the ice. Not sure how the little bit of current is effecting the ice conditions there. Best crappie fishing has been straight out from the landing in a whole about 32' deep. I am not sure about Gun lake as I only fish that later in the season.

Be very cautious on Gun. As of Monday there was still alot of open water out there, so ice conditions right now will be very spotty.

Fleming is coughing up tons of Crappies in the afternoon in 11-13 feet straight out from the access.

Ice on Fleming is 4-7"

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      Outdoor security cameras

      By Dash 1 · Posted

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
