The lake is now frozen over with 6 to 8 inches of ice nearer shore and less out in the middle. Around the first of the year, there were some locations near pressure ridges that were unsafe, especially for running snowmobiles. Fishing has been good for smaller splake and rainbow trout. Ice flies with mealworms, powerbait or cheese will work for rainbows. If things are slow, move in shallow and fish for perch.
Ice cover is now thick making drilling holes a job.
Fishing has been fair for a variety of fish including rainbows, hybrids browns. Success has been better earlier in the mornings and slows by noon.
