Ice House Storage


SCORE

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have recommendations on a resort that stores ice houses? I would like shower facilities if possible, and the price will play a factor too. Any info helps. I have looked online, but I am looking too see if anyone has any good/bad experiences or could refer me somewhere. Thanks.

Appledoorns does not run private houses. My vote would be to give George a call at Hunter's Point or try Twin Pines, I'm not sure if they run privates or not.

I'd try Garrison Sports. A friend of mine has his house there and has always been happy with them. It doesn't surprise me; Kari Hough is one of the nicest guys on the lake.

Just curious here, but i have never heard anything about Fishermans Wharf on this site. I was thinking about storing a wheel house up there on a camp site for next season (after i get it built). Are they always full or is there something i dont know?

We have had our house stored at Macs for the past 4 years. The service is very good, very friendly every time we pop in or give them a call. Not sure that they have any shower facilites though. Our house is stored approx a block away from the access site. Kevin and Karen, Jim and Brook do a good job. Bill

bturck, closing up this weekend? Fishing any of the perch contests? I'll be up doing both. I moved back in last weekend. I was worried that the snow storm could screw up pulling my house in. Now it's close enough that it's Kevin's problem.

Bill, next time you are up, I will personally show you where our TWO showerhouses are:) We have nice clean showers--both in Buzzie's building and the building on topo of the hill. Proud to be home to Buzzie's, too, so you can fill your tummy and sing your lungs out!

Karen

P.S. I'm restraining myself from any silly comments about the fact that you've been with use for so long and do not know we have showers. Eww:) You do know we have a garbage dumpster, though, right? blush.gif

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
