I had my 7 year old daughter out on Saturday. Drive is 3hrs each way and I come up every weekend. So from this guys perspective yes its worth it. Bring the kids to mdb and find some perch and you'll have a blast. Winter carnival is happening now so there's other things for the kids to do if needed.
Seems like everyone and there mother will be up this weekend...crap
That's the ticket! I'll be putting some miles on Sunday looking for some untouched fish. Have a funny feeling it's going to be a good day. If I wasn't so buried with work I'd be there sooner.
If you dont like people fishing holes that you have drilled right next to you I suggest bringing Jersey barriers, barbwire, and a bad ass pitbull... it's been crazy out there. Totally get theres limited ice but when it's not to packed and you and your 3 buddies come out a hr and a half after daylight and set up 6 ft. Away And wonder why I get pi$$ed. You've been warned lol
Its never too bad where I fish, probably because most wont walk 3 miles from an access and there wont be machines where I am!
Can anyone provide some ice conditions around the lake? Im looking to take the drive up next week and want to fish for lakers but dont know what the ice is like. Any info is much appreciated.
Extremely variable. There is laker water accessible but its best to take the drive up and let the spud tell you where to fish. Also if you read back a page or 3 in this thread you'll have some ideas.
Just a note...I am not the best person to PM on ice conditions. I live 3hrs away and only fish LG on the weekend or an occasional weekday.
Just goes to show how many people will be up this weekend
Na people like that usually don't go unless someone does their homework. Circus or not it doesn't stop me from smashing.
You and me both man, I’m new to site but I’m already close to getting off... same reason why I’m not on Facebook or anything else really crazy!
