If you don't mind me asking, where did you depart from, I assume it couldn't have been Point du Bois?

No slush at at all, could have skated across the lake until it warmed up in the p.m. Didnt find a phone sorry. All trout were around the 3 to 4 pound range..Might go back on saturday. Thanks

Are you going by snowmobile or would quads be able to make it in?

Where is Bannok?? We went there a few weeks ago. We left from point and found slush and one plase looks like a quad went through the ice. We had a good day cought about 50 between 3 of us. We fished in 70ft of water and found them on the bottom.

bannock point road is just east of Nutimik lake close to pine point rapids hiking trail. We went in sunday as well its quad only as the trails already getting muddy in the pm. We only fished baguley though and caught a nice catch of perch and one nice rainbow. Guess I shouldve tried George in the pm from the sounds of it. Oh well shouldnt be to much longer till open water on George. Ice was only
16". No slush at all and judging by the weather this week it'll be fairgame this weekend still.
