I’m not sure that there is fishable ice? Still lots of water fowl keeping spots open as well on many bodies of water. I know first hand lakes in that area opened back up on Sunday.

Sure we have had a couple cool nights but I’m not sure that I would even consider walking out to fish in that area tomorrow. If anything is completely iced over its not going to be very thick. And if any geese were there its going to be pretty sketchy yet.

Haven't fished there for a few years. However "The Bait Box" in Lake Preston is somewhat close. There used to be a bait shop in Willow Springs directly south of dry #2. I believe now its Prairie Storm Outfitters. I don't know if they still sell bait. Good luck and stay safe.

Depending on which direction your coming from Ward’s Store in Bryant stocks minnows and grubs as well as a significant amount of tackle for a small store.
