Any updates for Edmonton area lakes? How about Cold Lake? Is it froze over yet?
Any updates on Cold now?
Friend of mine just came off the lake. 9-10 inches of good ice out from French Bay.
Lots of people out on Cold Lake today. Few tents out from the marina a good half mile and a couple vehicles out that far. Looks like quite a few out from government launch quite a ways as well.Looks like the slaughter is on full bore. Should be a pretty high mortality rate in this cold weather 😐😐
Put my shack out on Pigeon on Saturday, probably around 24" of ice at the point just south of the Mulhurst boat launch. Went back today and there was a new, huge ice heave running east/west, maybe 1/2 km south of the boat launch, starting a couple hundred yards from shore and heading to the middle of the lake. We caught a couple walleye and saw a few others on the camera, as well as a few pike.
That heave crosses the entire lake to Grandview. Showed up before last weekend. Also a big one out in front of Grandview as well now. Different heave. Blocks you from getting anywhere. This year it is really bad and I think it is lack of snow and huge temp swings.
Cold Lake iced over a couple days ago I would imagine French bay won't be long it will be ready for foot or quad access.
Nice! Sure a late year. Good luck when you get out.
