Have a few days to fish the 25th & 26th. When can you normally drive out untill on LOW? Hate to make a reservation and then can't get out.<BR>Thanks for your reply ahead of time>

Unless something out of the ordinary happens, you will be just fine! We were out beyond that date last year. It will make you grow hair where you don't have any though...it gets kind of freaky! Good luck!

We are planning to be up there at that time. We go out of Long Point. The past 10 years or more we have been going up around this time some earlier some later. There wasn't one time that we were unable to fish. It has came down to getting rides out a few times. We bring the 4-wheeler and load the trailer with the gear. This better our odds of being independent if they put a stop to vehicles going out.

I would agree that you should have no problem. I fished out of Arnesen's last year on April 8th and there was almost 2 feet of ice still, but it was getting pretty brittle. Nevertheless, the guides were still driving their geo trackers with chains on the tires all over the place. I would receommend 4-wheelers, or sleds if there is snow, if you want to go to the reefs. I am heading up on March 19-22 to Arnesen's. I can give you a report if you like when I get back. just drop me a line.

      Made a quick trip before the weekend rush on Vermilion.  Ice was in very good condition.  Didn't see any slush or water on any of the roads out from McKinley Park.  There are plowed roads on both side of the staked snowmobile trail coming out from the landing.  The road to the left goes out toward Birch Island, and there is a spur road going to the left (west) a couple hundred yards out.  The road on the right side goes out toward Ely Island.  There is a short spur road going east about half mile out.   The water came up under my fish house about another 1½ inches when I drilled my holes.  Looks like I will be going back up early next week to block my house up higher.  The small amount of new snow is really drifting up and adding weight.  You may get water on the ice, or find slush if you drill holes in new areas.  There is about 15% bare ice where the wind has blown it off.  Many of the drifts are very high and hard, so you could get stuck on them.   Fishing was average.  Best bites were from 9-10am and 11-1230 when I quit.  Biggest walleyes was only 16¼", then the next biggest was 13.75".  Reporting lengths in quarter inches because I can't seem to find any big walleyes.   Good luck fishing, be careful driving around, and be courteous to others.
