Ice conditions just went bad
Ice conditions went from good to very bad. We have about four to six inches of ice. Now there is about ten inches of snow on top of it. As you can see on the attached pictures there is about two hundred feet of slush a long the whole shore line. It will be a long time before the ice will be good to travel on. The drifts are about three to four feet high.
Wish I had better news,
That a hard one young fella
Boy Don that's a tough one. Fisheree's will through the count way off and there are two big ones. The weather and ice conditions is a big factor too. Some years when there is lots of snow and vehicle (trucks and ATV's) travel is nonexistent, you'll won't see anybody out. Only those that have long track snowmobiles. But if I were to average the whole flowage on a good day, I would say maybe two hundred people.
Each region of the flowage has its ice fishing draws. They too, depend on many factors. I would say travel conditions and distance being the biggest.
Keep your stick on the ice,
