Been ice fishing out of there for years, never been there in open water though. But we like the place and the people that run it.

my parents have a place at nodak. they went up there a week or two ago to rake lawn and get it ready for the summer. they said the marina is low just like the rest of the lake, but also that they worked on it, (rebuilding some of the retaining walls, maybe a new dock, etc.). usually there is no problems with the landing, they have it dug out enough to get your boat out. I thought i remember reading 4-8 ft in the middle last year, cant remember. But out from the marina, it is shallow, and if it is too low that could be an issue. I don't know how deep the water is out from the marina though, because i have not been up there.

The cabins look nice, though i have never been in them, the camp sites are taken care of. I think it is a nice place.

I've been going to/staying at Nodak's since 1973 (Yikes, I'm old...) shocked.gif

I agree with UMD - outside of the harbor it gets shallow, but it's all sand.

Good luck out there!

i don't know how low the lake is, so i couldn't tell ya. I hope you can get out, because if you can't, that means we probably cant with a 21' sylvan. give roger (owner) a call he should know.

I looked up the water levels at the dam and it says the level around 0.5 ft lower than last year at this time.

Cabins are well kept and the people that run the place are great. They understand fish and fisherman.

      Hard to imagine an ice-out anytime before the month of May with that 10-day forecast and how much ice/snow still exists on the lake.  If ice out happens just prior to the opener, I do feel like that could be a good thing for the overall bite.  Let’s hope that is the outcome here and not an opener where we are ice fishing.   Remember the ice out date in 2012?  April 2nd...  Amazing to think it was ever that early!   Jeff and I will be up this weekend, retrieving our boats from winter storage and chasing some whitefish, Tullies, jumbo perch, and maybe even a crappie or two.  The bite for all species is usually really good this time of year so we’re looking forward to that.

      It's my favorite time of the year, looking at the forecast and trying to figure out when the lake will truly begin its annual change. Daytime highs will be above freezing 8 of the next 10 days with refreezing at night. Maybe 7-8 inches of snow next week, but that precipitation forecast is too far off to be accurate. It's slightly more reliable than my prediction of a hurricane hitting the lake! I do see sun forecasted for 5 of 10 days with temps above freezing. The sun is starting to get pretty strong even when air temps aren't that high. If that snow doesn't hit mid-week, I could see a portion of the snowpack melting.   I'm heading up tomorrow to *inspect* the lake in person

      Below zero lows...we are going the wrong way.  Not looking real good at the moment for an ice free opener. Things can go fast like last year with a handful of very warm days, but we better start making progress soon.

      I noticed something in the pictures of the fish in my previous post that show up on my phone but not here. The little icon in the lower right. When I touch it, up pops the email of the author of the newspaper article that the phone detected. Maybe the phone is too smart!!😜
