12/17/2022 Mille Lacs is in tough shape after the winter storm. We now have 8 inches of ice with 3 to 4 inches of water on top of the ice and 12 inches of snow on top of that. A ATV tried to go out but iced up so bad they had to come back in. We now need 20 plus below weather for a extended period of time if the ice is going to get thicker.

Ice report 12/04/2022 The North West end of the lake froze this past Thursday there was still a small area of open water yesterday that has frozen overnight. So this end of the lake the ice is thin and not safe to go on. There are people fishing on the South end Bays Isle, Wahkon and Cove where they have considerably more ice. I went through Isle on Friday and there were some ATV’S out on the ice in the bay. Be safe check with nearby resorts on the side of the lake where you want to go fishing.
