01/16/2026 Ice is now 17 to 19 inches thick. There is now a bridge over the pressure ridge so travel by truck and wheel house is possible to the mud flats. There is no longer any restrictions on truck and wheel house size. There is not enough snow to plow roads so make sure if you plan on going to the mud flats that you have a GPS. We have the following minnows for sale shiners, suckers and fatheads. A lot of small walleyes are being caught along with some keeper size walleyes and some jumbo perch. Northern pike fishing has been good in the bays.
