Well we finally got some ice in the channels and it won't be long before I am out there drilling and testing so you guys get ready

[Banker]

Listen to firefish Dan- he is who first got me out on Indian as a newbie!

[firefish532]

thanks banker I just hope I can find them this year

[slabslayer]

Just hope this snow doesn't kill any ice we have already.

[Banker]

Sometimes I wonder why ....why........why....and want to move to lake of th woods, MN...heard the weather up there is nice!

[perchguy]

Keep us posted firefish. THANKS

[wapak ice dawg]

this is copeland.......keep my number close at hand. I will check our local lake tomorrow. Water temp was still 36 degrees yesterday with nothing in the channels. A couple more nights of teen weather could drop it enough to set the freezing process in motion. The iceman will appear this year

[davidhoheisel]

Reports are that the lake has some nice clear ice on it. <aybe this Sunday or Monday. Keep us posted everyone.

Yes do keep this updated please!!! Im hoping that i'll be makin a trip on wed. Any and all info is appreciated, as it is about a 45min to an hour for me, worth it to make up for the lack of ice last year

[saugeyemarc]

it's about time.  I missed the two day ice last year and I'm starving to yank a few eyes out of a hole......

I talked to Dan earlier and he said a guy had gone through! Only a couple of feet deep, but still a rather cold foot soaking.

If you're thinking about coming up tomorrow, I'd strongly weigh my options. There is a dock tournament at Alum that will offer a safer alternative.

If you insist on hitting Indian, make sure you exercise extreme caution. Have a back up plan in just in case.

I will not be on Indian tomorrow.

[fishintechnician]

so with the snow forecasted for tonight and tomorrow do you think it will be fishable by next wed? forecast looks good but dont know how th esnow will affect it
