Would love nothing more than to head out to the Vikings club on my day off Monday! Please keep us up to date on conditions. Anything over 4 inches black ice and my ass will be there. It's been two years since I've got out because of the warm winter last year

After Tuesday the cold temps will really tighten the lake up and probably add 2 or 3"to what is already there,IF the forecast is correct! Time to make a mad dash to the bait shop!

Hoping someone will be kind enough to update the ice today. I'm coming in town for the holiday weekend and would love to get my pole wet while there. Lol. Did the snow really compromise the ice? Thanks in advance! Happy New Year!

Called in sick to go check out ice conditions yesterday, lots of open water close to mayville. Was on anywhere from 3-4 inches of black ice with about 6 inches of snow on top closer to lower basin. Was all alone out there and landed this 49 inch Muskie while fishing for crappie, so I had to take a musky selfie

You guys have seen the reports right? ... Not looking good plus there's gotta be a foot of snow on the ice now.

Ice was good today but the fishing sucked! I must have caught 200 perch under 6 inches.
