Two guys on the baycam now.Hope they stay on the north side of the ice.
Took a look at Baseline last night on the way home from work. Probably ten or more hubs off the shore. I talked to one gent who was heading out after parking his vehicle. He said there was 7 inches of ice, but I can't confirm.
Went to Ned's Saturday night after fishing Upper Crooked. Saw a bunch of people fishing the north end. Even saw a guy drive a 4- wheeler out on the ice!!! Can't be enough ice for that yet.
So where can a guy get on the ice nowadays legally without permission from some landowner? I'm Local here in Portage and haven't been to Gull in a few years since the Smelt die-off. The places I got on in the past were the Party Store (not anymore), the Salon? (Bubblers?), the North End Boat Launch (Safe Yet?), Baseline Rd? (Never Been Yet), The Bible Camp? (Went once in Blizzard and had a Hell of time Walking out). I prefer not to walk to far if possible as I'm gettin older and my knees aren't the greatest. I got me some of them Gull Lake SmeltBuster Ice Flies ready to go.
Dont get a white shanty smeltbuster.lol i dont need the crowd thinking i am you!lol
