Dale 21 Report post Posted December 24, 2022 Has anyone Been to lac or whitefish or any other area lake recently? Just wondering how bad the slush is after this heavy wet snow last week any info would be greatly appreciated! Especially since I’m way too old to get bogged down in that stuff thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

speckmaster 114 Report post Posted December 24, 2022 I’m thinking that this crazy wind we’ve been having is going to blow a lot of the snow off the lakes. Some bays will be bad, but most of the lake should be good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishinFinn 40 Report post Posted December 26, 2022 Anybody have an update on slush conditions? Pretty bad out there on smaller lakes to the west? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AB 98 Report post Posted December 26, 2022 Just got off the road in Dryden. Every lake, creek and puddle between Tbay and Dryden has multiple dark spots visible as you go by on the highway. I would venture to say it is gonna be a slushfest like we haven't seen in years. Definitely gonna need waterproof boots. Was thinking anyone going out for Lakers in the new year might want to rip up some trails and pack down a few fishing spots ahead of the opener. 1st time in years I am glad I still haven't laid out the cash for a snow machine. Good luck and safe travels! AB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James01 223 Report post Posted December 27, 2022 Am I missing something ... "a slushfest" vs. "may be good time go Dryden." Lac's ice road is open - from a different thread. So, what are conditions like? Quote Many Men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.- Henry David Thoreau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Guy 116 Report post Posted December 28, 2022 Found some slush up in Jaques Township. When I say some, I mean a lot! lol barnum, pike and lottit all have a lot of slush. I didn't slow down on the machine enough to know how deep it got. Been there and done that. Don't need to be chopping machines out of the ice ever again.
