Just as well start the infamous Brushy thread! Anyone heard or seen any ice conditions on the lake?

toofuss · « **Reply #1 on:** Nov 28, 2014, 12:23 PM »

wide open

Crappie24 · « **Reply #2 on:** Nov 28, 2014, 03:44 PM »

That's weird I was just told from another guy the north end is froze all the way out to "raymonds tree" except for the cove to the east where geese have kept it open??

wide open

no news was better than this news. Thanks toofuss

toofuss · « **Reply #4 on:** Nov 28, 2014, 07:18 PM »

OK I'll clarify. As of this last Monday it was wide open. Even if it skimmed back over again it is nowhere near fishable yet. Especially seeing as 20 feet off the boat ramp your in 25 feet of water. If you want to chance it you got bigger cajones than me my friend.

I'll pass, lol. Never been a fan of swimming

The cove to the east is always first to freeze... Your source must not be local. The far northwest end clear up by the horse bridge barely had skimmed as of Tuesday when I duck hunted it...

Was just there myself yesterday and drilled 3-4 holes the white ice was all of 3" or better and the dark ice was barely 2" before 9 am and I'm sure most of that got fairly soft with yesterday's temps. Don't think I'll be fishing it anytime soon.

From what I am hearing from reputiable friends in the area, it may be game on by this weekend although confined to the very north end

redshackdistrict · « **Reply #9 on:** Dec 03, 2014, 06:07 PM »

What's the word fellas? Weekend can't come soon enough

toofuss · « **Reply #10 on:** Dec 03, 2014, 09:24 PM »

im hearing anywhere from 2.5 to 5 inches. Gills and crappie being caught

redshackdistrict · « **Reply #11 on:** Dec 03, 2014, 09:27 PM »

That's good to hear. Hope I can get up there and get into them crappie. Had a good time up there last year.

toofuss · « **Reply #12 on:** Dec 03, 2014, 09:30 PM »

I would have no qualms about this weekend. wish I could.

redshackdistrict · « **Reply #13 on:** Dec 03, 2014, 09:44 PM »

jlpaulsen87 · « **Reply #15 on:** Dec 04, 2014, 02:38 PM »

Anyone make it to brushy today? Me and a buddy are thinking of heading that way Saturday.

jon1023 · « **Reply #16 on:** Dec 04, 2014, 03:25 PM »

Im heading there tomorrow afternoon to fish for awhile, will let you know.

jlpaulsen87 · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 04, 2014, 08:06 PM »

Ok thanks. Good luck

walleyewarrior50595 · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 05, 2014, 01:35 PM »

Although mike from DG&g's ice reports are typically true, the drunk normally lies on fishing reports in order to sell more bait! Just a fair warning lol

jon1023 · « **Reply #19 on:** Dec 05, 2014, 06:08 PM »

That could be true ice was 4-5 bout 10-15 people out caught a lot of ok gills just 2 crappie but was only out for 2 hours. Everyone was catching fish that I saw

brittlab · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 05, 2014, 06:56 PM »

4" of ice today. a few hundred yards south of the ramp. decent bite and a dozen keeper crappies. Use caution and take a spud bar. stay east of the creek channel

Dirt_Guru · « **Reply #21 on:** Dec 19, 2014, 02:17 PM »

Just a quick update. I was in the area so I thought I'd swing by and check the ice. The north ramp had just shy of 2 inches and the south ramp was around 1.5 inches. Still need some more cold to get to a safe thickness. There were a few pockets of open water I saw driving around, but almost everything had at least a skim of ice from my view. With the weather predicted, it might be safe again after Christmas at the earliest.

toofuss · « **Reply #22 on:** Dec 22, 2014, 06:31 AM »

There were 2 guys on Saturday with about 3.5 inches. There is a break line off the corner of the boat ramp. Everything south of that break is no good. Stay safe guys

redshackdistrict · « **Reply #23 on:** Dec 23, 2014, 12:06 PM »

Hope this next cold spell stays around. Wacked em last xmas day and not gonna even going to have ice this year. Glad I got out there 2 weeks ago... im guessing the rain f'ed anything that was there by now

dirtyeyes · « **Reply #24 on:** Dec 23, 2014, 07:34 PM »

Total restart is best case scenario.

dirtyeyes · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 28, 2014, 04:22 PM »

Gonna be making some ice Monday and Tuesday...

toofuss · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 01, 2015, 03:07 PM »

Ill be out saturday morning. bringing the quad but not sure if we will un load it yet.

Bates · « **Reply #27 on:** Jan 01, 2015, 03:49 PM »

Headed tomorrow with the truck probably won't drive out yet. I'll wait since ice just formed AGAIN a couple days ago. Never know why bring it if you can't use it.

redshackdistrict · « **Reply #28 on:** Jan 01, 2015, 07:20 PM »

Leave the quad at home... bring ur hover craft if ur thinking about driving anything out.

johnbonzo · « **Reply #29 on:** Jan 04, 2015, 08:33 PM »
