Can anyone tell me if there's still fishable ice up there? Taking the family up for this coming weekend and wonder if there's any safe ice on any of the lake.

Thanks for any info!

yeah still plenty of ice especially on the east end. all the ice is safe on the lake is safe as of today. we are supposed to have a few more warm days and some rain so it might not be safe next weekend. use caution if you go out this coming weekend!!

After the recent weather, anyone know if there's still fishable ice on Crystal or is it open water? Thanks for any info.

Fished Crystal off of Lobb Rd. Friday 3/13. Plenty of ice 12 - 15 inches. Could not catch a smelt.

Warning - a pressure ridge formed about 3 -4 foot high from the Lobb Rd. access all the way across the lake. Neat thing to see.

Shows what 60 mph winds off the big lake will do.:yikes:
