Comming home on thursday and was wondering if it would be possible to drive a 4 wheeler out on clearwater? I know the ice was rotting fast when I was out last thursday....Anybody know the latest conditions?

Saturday the ice was still plenty good for a wheeler if you know where you are going. Judging by the lakes in the metro I saw yesterday and the rain expected over the next couple days, I think you may be limited to walking and might need waders by the coming weekend. frown.gif

Was trying to get the atv out on Sylvia but the ice was indeed questionable. I drilled a hole with not effort so the ice is honeycombed. Walked out to the south side of Cedar Point and kicked some holes open. Caught a few small sunnies, you can see them no problem. The water clarity is wonderfull. The expected rains should cause big trouble for the ice. shocked.gif

Yeah I walked out on Suger yeasterday. The ice was terrable. Got a wet leg multiple times but I did end up catching 8 nice crappies and 6 other small ones. Now its time to get the boat out and put the ice fishing stuff away!

      Looks like you could use a FM hat. 😉    The future son in law prefers the lump coal.  He’ll start it in coal starter over a propane burner, then dump in it his smoker grill as needed.   Congrats on the clean break “over there”.

      Should really start a What yeah Smoking thread!    Another fun place we tried when up in Duluth. OMC stands for "Oink, Moo, Cluck" They serve pork cracklins for starter to test their sauces on.

      On the east side of St. Boni. It's not too far from me. A friend lives in St Boni and loves the place. I haven't tried it yet.

      Bait

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!
