MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
If conditions remain as they are now, a wheeled quad is OK. 4x4 trucks are driving around on the lake now as well as quads. Way less snow on the ice then last year, not even close, no comparison. With warmer temps coming the existing snow is gonna collapse even more. ....so its looking good. A big dump of fresh snow and all can change overnight though, but its unlikely things will deteriorate that badly with warmer temps, this late in the season.
Thanks all, it sounds like my buddy got his sled up and running, but we might bring the quads anyway depending on the snow conditions. Heading up next week, and am looking forward to some good fishing, and visiting some friends we made last year. Thanks again,Doug
We are expecting highs in the 50's Doug on Sunday, no measureable snow in the near future. Check here, I'll also pm you my cell number. Can text you up to the minute info. Cam.
Thanks for sharing a detailed report blue. Heading out with my wife and son tomorrow and the heads up on current conditions is appreciated by many I'm sure especially at this time of year with things changing so quickly.
Thanks for sharing blue igloo, I appreciate the updates.
Just got home from there. I would not use a snowmobile unless you don't care about wearing out the sliders. There is really no loose snow but there is water and slush in spots. Best bet today were quads……wheeled or tracked. Saw a few SnoBears and many side by sides, sleds, quads and trucks pass through/over the ridges and made their way to the "sacred" Red River mouth I saw one small Ranger type truck stuck on a ridge. Lots of anglers out and spread out everywhere for miles. Access is slushy and bumpy at CBR but doable in 2 wheel drive. Heck, I even saw a car out near the Salamonia Ice is 4 ft thick……bring an extension. AYA Derby is at CBR this weekend…….the place will be a zoo this weekend.Blue Igloo
Hey blue, have you seen anybody at CBR specifically crossing the ridge by truck, I wonder is the ridge is still crossable at CBR by truck.... (apart from that Ranger) Thx.
