I beg to differ. Do the work and learn the lake. Get the presentation right and you will have a different opinion

Pick a spot, any spot!

Fishing might be a bit subpar until the water clears. It was quite murky last night.

Riding my sled down the ice hill at the park was quite fun, though.

never been a size restriction but mt question to you .....why would you need a bigger hole???? a 10 inch hole  is the  same circunfirance as a man with a  32 inch waste

Good point...been fishing with 6 for years. Easy to carry, drill and have been able to land plenty of big fish. No need for anything bigger than 8 IMO...

Plenty of room to park if you have 4wd. It's usually not plowed.

As of Wednesday the gate to back road was closed so there isn't much area to park until they open the gate to the road.

I would guess that you can Sporty. The snow machines are. Not too much parking area outside the gate. Couple driveways right there.  :-\ :-\
