01/20/2022 We checked ice again yesterday out on the flats and we still found a lot of areas where the ice was 9 to 12 inches thick. This is not enough ice to allow truck traffic out there. There were also some large areas with slush. Ice in the bay is good, we have plowed roads and we are allowing trucks and wheel houses. We will plow you a spot if you need one. We will check the ice out on the flats again next week. The forecast is for several more inches of snow which is not good for making ice.

01/15/2022 We took the plows out to Curly’s flat yesterday and there is still to much water on the road so it will remained closed until later in the week the below zero temps we have coming this week should heal everything up for next weekend. We have a dry road to Rock pile flat but we had one of our customers yesterday tell us he found some 9 inch ice on Rock pile flat. When we checked out there we did not find any ice that thin, however I do believe our customer and therefore we are also closing that road until the end of next week. St. Albans Bay has had very little fishing pressure and offers a lot of area to fish. If you have a wheel house we will plow you a spot to fish in the bay.

1/13/2022 The ice has improved most of the ice in St. Albans Bay is 14 to 15 inches thick. The ice going to the flats is 16 to 19 inches thick. We plowed roads in the bay and out to Curly’s Flat and the Rock pile flat. The roads to the flats are not as wide as are roads normally are because of places where we hit water. Roads where we exposed the water should freeze this coming week and allow us to widen them and hopefully plow to more flats.

01/05/2022 We checked ice yesterday. In St. Albans Bay the ice is 11 to 13 inches thick and there are some areas of slush. On the new ice on the main lake we found 8 1/2 inches of ice. Curly’s flat had 9 inches of ice some of the further out mid-lake flats had more ice on them. Ice travel is fine for ATV’S and snowmobiles not enough ice for trucks or for us to plow roads.
