ICE REPORTS FOR METRO


Recommended Posts

Am looking for ice reports on the local metro lakes around Blaine area. Have a paranoid wife that watches the news and them saying ice is not safe and all that junk. She is also expecting so to ease her nerves what ever reports I get here will be shown to her. I just need a place to get to this weekend.

I was out on Sarah Sunday night. There was about a foot of ice. We took the four wheeler out but we probably could've taken the truck. There wasn't a bit of water on top either. I would say it's safe for the most part but I'd walk or ATV out first to be sure.

Coon has anywhere from 8-12 inches, depending on where you are. I haven't fished the channel at all yet, but the west end has had plenty of ice for snowmobiles, 4 wheelers, and smaller houses for a couple of weeks.

      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!

      Great news, thank Skunked

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      Thanks for the heads up. Cigar.

      The price will blow your mind if they get some

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!

      I hope to see it and believe it next week! Nice looking crappie
