Hi Big Fish , I have been to the Val quinten area about 5 times this winter and caught about 25 walleye all over or just over the 43cm mark , you or anyone have a spot they have been catching the small walleye , heading out tomorrow afternoon for one last shot at it . Thanks to everyone for the info

Hi Big Fish I been at the Val quinten area about 5 times this winter

Easy access now with all the snow melt going on. Bit of surface water on top but still lots of ice to fish from 2 feet until this weekend season ends. Action was steady, video of a small pike attacking my bait is really cool 1 class A walleye half a dozen smaller and lots of small pike. No whites or Burbot seen at all.

Went out yesterday and drove on. Fishing was slow.

Anyone know what the current status of the ice is? Thinking of heading out sometime this week if its still walkable

The bite was on yesterday caught over 30 jack and 14 walleye

Out Saturday lots of snow on lake. access is OK. but need 4x4 and aggressive tires. Fishing was slow, actually very slow. Caught 1 small pike and saw 1 white and 1 other pike.

Looks like noone fishes st anne lately

Anything new on the lake?????

HI any catching on the lake and How thick is the ice there?

Ice Report: 18 in
18" Just south of the shacks set up from the dock at Alberta beach

Going out tomorrow, should I have any concern about driving a tundra out into the ice either near Gunn or val Quentin side??? Also where are the bites happening depth wise? 8-12 feet deep or more in the 15-25 foot deep range? I'm set up to fish for anything so lures and Riggs and tackle don't matter to me, just looking for fish. Thanks for any input. Happy fishing everyone.

Hi DdotM we have been fishing here for a few years now targeting the Whites. I can tell you patience brings good size whites but not lots of them. Small wire worms and no bait seems to be the key. It is not safe to drive your truck through the ice but if you stay on top you should be good!

First time heading out and fishing in this lake, is there any good tips for catching white fish or any fish in general in this lake and also depth, bait, lures, etc. any pointers would be good! and I would like to know if its safe enough to drive a light truck through the ice. Tnx Tight Lines everyone!

To Stinkfinger, it was at north or south of the bridge? My target is walleye, thx. Wind warning tomorrow, guys watch out the ice movement. Have great day.

To jbussche Noted & thx. According to the warm weather these 2 days,guys watch out.

Non stop walleye under the bridge on far end , dont drive on Use sliced liver

To g7 were I was was on the west side of lake over by pages point and as soon as I got into the lake my tracks were wet behind me

out Sunday all day by Ross Haven Hard to get on and off the ice. Surface water and only about 10-12 ice. caught 1 walleye and 3 pike saw 1 white on camera and a few more pike. Sun was blocked by fog all day and it was pretty cold. All in all a great day

Went out Sunday morning for the whole day. We landed 3 pike. Lost way more. Didn't see anything other than pike. We were near Gunn. Lots of heavy snow bringing up flood water

17 in ice at south of Farming Island but 2-3 in white soft ice between top and bottom like 3 layers,and thick snow on top,there was a truck over there. No walleye and whitefish found and just saw 4 pikes and few perches today.

Skunked today. Lots of slush under the snow, about 14" by Alberta Beach but only about 9" off the Gunn boat launch. Use caution if driving a truck on, you're taking a chance. Ice is pretty bad, lots of 2-3 inch white ice rings all the way down the holes. Ice conditions this year are terrible.

Was out on the weekend and only saw and cough one pike the hold day. I had a camera in the water the hole day off Alberta beach main boat launch. Very slow. The ice was only 10 or so inches thick too with a layer of slush and water on top so no large trucks. We had our small SUV and was ok.

14 in ice on north side pike and walleye on smelts

jbussche_So which area you found water under the snow? Sounds scary.

I went out Friday and got skunked. Ice is only about 10" thick and there is a lot of water under the snow. Use caution when you head out I dont recommend you use your truck I used my quad.

What is the Ice Report so far? And heading out on Monday see if i can find some good spots. Thx.

Looking to hit the lake this Sunday in attempt to catch white fish for the first time. Any advice would be great. Thx in advance

Ops i mean how much snow is on lake?

How deep is the ice at Yellowstone area? Is there lots of snow on rr33 access, how much snow is in lake?

I caught a 17 pounder in here about 20 years ago by the island. There are big ones still in here.

Does anyone know the biggest pike that has come out of this lake?

How’s the fish been? Thinking of heading out tomorrow

Anolis666_what boat launch alberta beach side or Yellowstone side?_

Ice Report: 15 in
Alberta Beach, 100 yards off the boat launch

Looking at this weekend. Anyone get into any perch? How's the fishing been?

Ice Report: 10 in
10-11 inches at Alberta beach around the shacks just off the boat launch

Lol that's what father in laws do. Good luck on your fishing.

Thank you all for the updates. Heading out tomorrow with the son in law See if he can handle a few holes with the manual auger before I pull out the power. LOL.

Tks drs and elrey

I drove my ram 1500 on the ice on Saturday 11 inches minimum ice

Ice is good about 11 inches and water is clean and clear.

Hi all. Any trucks on the ice by val quentin or alberta beach??? Tks

How's the ice folks? Thinking of baptizing the son in law. Rather drive on than tow the sleds.

Thanks! I'm not looking for details. I don't mind the search. I take my daughters with me so knowing that they are in there is all I need

Sure is...

Any perch in this lake
