I have a group that is trying to plan a trip this winter. I have a couple f questions. A lot of us are in college or graduate school, so we will be picking between the weekends of Jan 5-6 or Jan 12-13. We plan on driving out on the ice with our half ton pickups. Will the ice be safe enough at this time to do this? We could always bring our ATV's, but it would be a pain to haul them that far. Any suggestions on a cheap hotel? We would probably need two rooms and would like to keep it under $50/night. What bait shop should we go to? And the million dollar question, who has the cheapest beer prices?
thanks
