Ice and fishing report 2/5/2021. We checked ice again yesterday and there was no change from last week. The ice on the main lake is 11 to 12 1/2 inches thick. This is not thick enough to plow a road and allow truck and wheel house traffic. We hope after the upcoming cold we will have enough ice to plow a road to the flats late next week. I talked with Mille Guide Tim Ajax out of Isle yesterday and he told me there are places on the south end that have only 9 inches of ice. For those of you who read this report and don’t believe and are planning on driving out this weekend. Beware not only will you be driving on ice that is not safe, with the impending cold there will be new cracks and they could be several feet wide. The possibility of being stranded out in the middle of the lake is very real. Fishing continues to be very good some days and very slow on others.
