Lac des Mille Lacs....Ice Status

[mitch 7]

me too, see you out there!!

[Guest mminelli]

Hello all>

New to ice fishing on Lac, looking for tips and advice,

I am just finishing up the interior of my Ice Shack and hope to bring it out soon,

I am thinking of bringing it to Coffin Island. It has taken me around 7 weeks to build so far and i only need a propane stove/oven

and then its good to go.

I have been told that there is a guy that will pull out my shack for a price, and am looking for his contact info, to set something up

also need to know what needs to be on the end of my tow bar.

Hope you all like the paint job . ( it took 44 man hours)

I see sponsorship in the future! Nice paint job!

Hmm...

is it odd that I still want to hear an ice report even though shacks are out there????

ok, you are right...

this may be a very stupid question but...since theres not alot of snow (yet), would it be possible for a van or car to venture out on the ice? me and a group of friends are planning on renting 1 or 2 shacks on boxing day and the only truck we can get r hands on would only be able to meet us out there a day after we r planning on going...thanks for any information...and sorry in advance if this is a very stupid question.

14" of ice today at sand point, same as last week. This snow must be making it hard for fresh ice to freeze.

Was out today. At the very most meassured only 12'' of ice just NE of coffin. She was blowing a gale out there today and was about minus a million with wind chill. Fishing blew and only caught 5 waldo's and two pike. One nice 18'' waldo though.

Rog.... how did you make out?

[Guest Domenic]

Me and my brother also made it out to lac today. Unbelieveably cold. We were just past Carp island. We slaughtered them today. Can honestly say my vexilar and my portable ice hut were worth their weight in gold today. We must of landed at least 25-30 in 5 hours. Most of them out of one hole though. What a cold day. Good luck to whomever braves the cold and dress warm.

It wasn't slaughter fest where I was but it was cold out!

Biggest was 20 inches and no pike!

I was out twice over the holidays also, we did get our limits both trips but it was tough fishing I had a hard time hooking fish they would suck the bait in an just hold. Maybe now that the low pressure system has gone by they will get more agressive.
