Anyone have any experience/advice about walking the area between Speaker Heck Island and Assembly Point? I'd like to come out of Harris Bay, turn that corner, and head southwest into some deeper water. I'm just curious as too see if anyone has any recent experience with this and how the ice conditions are. Is there any current in that narrow area between Assembly Point and Speaker Heck Island that I should be concerned with? Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend it this year. that area can get sketchy.

Agreed. That area off Assembly Point is a good spot for an early season plunge. Big pressure ridges and inconsistent ice there this year.

I've seen plenty of machines coming out of Harris and running that gap this year and even some the last couple days although traffic was very light on Wednesday and Thursday. People were also walking between Long and Speaker heck to fish around Canoe.

Anyone been out of Harris this week with a quad?

I was out of Harris the last couple days. Still tough going even with chains for me but my machine is only a 335. Snowmobile is the better option if you got it. Guys with bigger machines and tracks were doing much better off trail.

Lake is getting very sloppy. Lots of standing water some spots 10 inches deep. Ruts full of water. About 4 inches of slush and 4 inches of snow on top of that. Here’s a picture of the mdb Boat launch. About 1 foot of water in the ice

buz23 · « **Reply #8465 on:** Feb 17, 2018, 04:01 PM »

Well, I'm stumped. Fished Huddle Bay today in 30-40', caught 6 perch but approximately 60 seeds. Where are the perch?? Deeper?

fullThrottle · « **Reply #8466 on:** Feb 17, 2018, 04:43 PM »

No clue. I can’t focus on anything but lakers. Panfish are for preseason lol

ziggy6 · « **Reply #8467 on:** Feb 17, 2018, 05:08 PM »

Question... I know you set tip ups just under the ice for salmon but can you jig for them?

bigfish1212 · « **Reply #8468 on:** Feb 17, 2018, 05:13 PM »

Few years ago I jigged up a few on the perch beds on tungstens. There was a lot more schools of smelt on the beds that year for whatever reason, and that is when I would pick them up jigging through those smelt or just as they moved.

anyone been out of hearthstone in the last day or two. hows the road and ice?

mike304 · « **Reply #8470 on:** Feb 18, 2018, 05:25 AM »

It was pretty good on Wednesday. Good enough for about 20 vehicles to drive down to the beach.

Fishmon · « **Reply #8471 on:** Feb 18, 2018, 06:48 AM »

Lakers and salmon were on fire yesterday morning in northern basin, but unfortunately ice may be by middle of week. Short season again.

Spoondangler · « **Reply #8472 on:** Feb 18, 2018, 05:29 PM »

Did anyone see that 28 lb laker someone got a couple weeks ago? 39 inches.

Also, an I understanding correctly that you can get to the bottom of the hill lot at hearthstone?

Bassmaster16 · « **Reply #8473 on:** Feb 18, 2018, 06:42 PM »

That must be one fat laker. My LG 39”er didn’t go 28lbs... would like to see that pic. The link posted is private.

bigfish1212 · « **Reply #8480 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 08:35 AM »

I think this is the one it does look chunky but 28# might be a stretch.

Garufi518 · « **Reply #8481 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 09:51 AM »

Small white dog running around hearthstone rn will not come to Anyone if someone missing

It says 38” and 29lbs on the page...

38” yes. 29lbs, heck no.

Chase88 · « **Reply #8484 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 11:42 AM »

Lakers in LG usually average around 10lbs at 30 inches and then a pound for every inch after that... I would go with 19 lbs but 29 don't know about that....if so its a great catch....

bird21s · « **Reply #8485 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 12:39 PM »

Great fish for sure but no way it weighs 28 or 29 lbs. I agree with it likely being 18 or 19lbs. Look up photos of actual 30lb lake trout, they have huge bellies!!

DShooo · « **Reply #8486 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 02:14 PM »

Man that dink is only a 3 pounder!!!

Fontona19 · « **Reply #8487 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 04:22 PM »

Who knows maybe his scale was out of whack. Beautiful fish for sure. Congrats to the angler.

fullThrottle · « **Reply #8488 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 04:29 PM »

To bad it didn’t go back In the water.

Fontona19 · « **Reply #8489 on:** Feb 19, 2018, 04:31 PM »

I tend to agree, but to each their own.
