People are fishing at the head of the bay between Baraga and L'anse

Just passed the head of the bay about 430 on Saturday and saw eight or 10 people fishing about 1/4 mile from shore. Watched two guys spudding their way out . The ice looks broken and unsafe near the shore . My wife asked if you have to spud your way out , maybe you shouldn't be out there? But, as I told her, somebody has to be the first, but it will never be me.  Not risking my life for a few fish. Thought maybe someone would find this information important . I'll wait a week or two more for the ice to thicken up.  Hopefully it does.

Thanks for the info.  With a SSW wind tonight and WSW tomorrow I will give it some more time before I go.  If the ice stays it won't take long before there wlil be ice past the Mission.

I forgot to mention in my earlier post that there was some skim-ice out near the mission also.  The entire surface of the lake was not covered, but large patches of it were.  A few more calm, cold nights and these patches will connect and the ice will get better.  Considering the last two winters, this one is off to a good start.
