Erie Ramps
« on: Feb 21, 2015, 09:17 PM »
Is there a list of landings/ramp to hit Erie in Michigan?

What ramp seems to be the best? Are they all a mad house? Any problems with parking/theft?

Is there a map or trail with names to follow out onto the ice?

I just don't want my first trip out be my last.

Thanks
Charles E.

You can park at Breast Bay Marina, used to be $5.  You can then go straight out from there to the walleye grounds.  You will see people out there.

Breast Bay Marina is just north of Monroe between Newport and Nadeau Rds.  I am unsure how far out people are going right now, but it can vary anywhere from a mile to a few miles.

That's the problem for me, is that I don't have ice transportation other than my feet.  A mile, I probably can handle on non-windy days without a crap ton of snow..but we all know that perfect conditions are few and far between.  I would offer guys a few bucks to take me out and back one day!  Would even wear a blindfold  ;D

It could, just depends on if it locks back up by next weekend. Unfortunetly the reason why it is so unsafe is it could change daily or even hourly.  I plan on bringing my lifejacket and a inflateable boat!  ;D ;D ;D
