I was just wondering if anybody has been going out through Morris Gap this year at all. I've been out through it before years ago with my grandfather in his old wood launch. With the water up this year I suspect it would be safe but really don't want to take any risks. Last year their wasn't a prayer of cutting through with the water levels being so low. Any lower and we would've been fishing the river. <P>I'm just thinking that sometimes with a West wind like last weekend it would be nice to cut through this way to take some of the stress out of the drive. Just wondering what everybody thinks.<P>Ryan

I've noticed a few boats coming inside Pine from the river to head out thru the washout. I haven't been to the cabin for a week now, but there were lots of deadheads and other debris in 4mile. If I go up tomorrow, I'll post on the floating junk.

You'll have to keep your eyes peeled for deadheads and weedbeds but it is doable.<P>fiskyknut

      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.
