Sturge Lake Ice

Recommended Posts

Thinking about heading to Sturge for some walleye. Anyone have any info on ice thickness or how the bite is?

A couple weeks ago I stopped in to check it out, there was about 6” in front of the landing.  Not sure how the warm spell we had last week would have effected it.

That  lake can get really slushy and ice can be inconsistant we as group sunk four trucks in there back in 2000 or 2001 thank god we all survived be careful. My cousin had his atco trailer there at the time and we had somewhere to go an dry off and get warm. Be careful.

bin fishin lots

Lol not even sure why people fish here. In 10 years nobody has posted a good trip from there. I fished it myself a few years ago. And came up with same general results. 0.

Maybe I'm ignorant I don't know. But it seems those lakes and the river is just not a whole bunch of fun lol.

Sturge has lots of fish in it.  

 

The walleyes are fussy as all hell and I have watched one guy limit out while his buddy gets the fin. (I have been on both sides of that statement).

 

Its just like any other lake, location, time of day and presentation all matter. But it always seems like the last fish of the trip hits just before the flashlights come out.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming - WOW - what a ride!!!

i wouldn`t doubt it, i was there Saturday and you had to stay away from the shore in lots of spots, there was still 3 shacks on the ice, they pulled them off by the end of the day, fishing was good
