Hopefully you can fit them thru the door. :o  Note to self enlarge shanty door for next year! :tipup:

Theres gonna be a road out from south bay after today I think we're gonna go over and open her up.  Other than that I dont think we'd be able to make it out to the shack after these super windy/snowy days.  I'd imagine theres some naughty drifts over there.  We'll see :laugh:

Monday we could not get on the lake. But Tuesday someone plowed a trail from south bay to where the snow is not too deep
Bayside was partly open Tuesday with on trail you could follow.  We left early tonight because the wind started coming up and did want to get caught out their.
I would Guess it Will be pretty hard to get on in the morning.

Busted a road out tonight from south bay and by the time we pulled off at about 10 30 she was drifted shut again.  Heading out bright and early about 6am to open her up again!  d**n drifts are rock solid!  Shouldnt be hard at all to get on in the morning if you come out after us :D

The eyes were slow though >:(

Yep theres a good plowed road out from south bay ramp.  Just park off to one side of the road so others can get by.

We were out there monday during the "blizzard" and you're def. getting on the knees to drill the holes... wanting to make a quick trip tonight.... gotta see if i can get a truck... the wife is prego and is craving walleye.... i couldn't be a luckier man.  the only problem being that i don't have a truck... and if you don't have 4 wheel out there.... eeeek.  so if anyone sees a gold toyota going 50 mph just to get to the hole... thats my goal. just hoping the road assistance people provide for lake assistance.

Friday we picked up some nicer keepers but it was slow.  Saturday night was all dinks with no keepers.  These sunny days dont seem to help the bite much.
