Friend went out last week, caught tons of decent sized pike in the north end of the lake. A couple of walleye too. I'm going out there Sunday, I'll report back!

Still a good solid 8” in the sw corner. Seems to be holding up okay in spite of the warm temps.

About 8 inches, soft. This warm spell ain’t going to help anything.

Does anyone know how the ice looks? Planning a trip this weekend
by Norman68 on Mar. 12, 2016
Thanks again for the info, Cpt. Hook. Six is definitely a lot, my pal and I only saw one during two trips there. The ice condition is a concern now, not sure if I go tomorrow
by Cpt. Hook on Mar. 12, 2016
I am not sure what the ice is like this weekend maybe someone can give an update. Spotted walleye on a camera near an island about 500 Metres North and a bit West from boat launch. I have heard it referred to as bird island. We were fishing in about 6 Metres of water (give or take) and about 10 metres off the shore. We had one yank bait off the hook, (saw it on the camera)but that was as close as we got to catching one. The "Lots" I referred to were six eyes, which, to us, was quite a lot because we have fished here several times now, but this was the first time we saw ANY walleye...and 6 is WAY more than none so, to us, it was lots!
by Norman68 on Mar. 12, 2016
Cpt. Hook, thanks for the update!_I still have two walleye tags since I had no luck catching one this year. Can you kindly tell me where did you see the "lots of walleyes"? I may try my last ice fishing tomorrow.

I find your lack of faith disturbing. Next time you subject other readers to your negativity, try backing it up with some facts--none of which you had to help anyone out. The ice within a half Klick of Kinbrook Island was 19" thick, sorry for the slight exaggeration--I did say "About". As anyone should know, ice conditions may vary with depth and temperature. I admit I assumed anyone reading my report would understand two things: a) that the word "about" meant I was not giving the exact measurement b) that with the warm temperatures any vehicle on varied ice conditions would be crazy. There were about fifteen (I didn't count them so again, this is an estimate) other people on the ice that can confirm my measurement...as opposed to your--comment. I can agree with one thing you said, but I think people get hurt or killed by assuming anything. My report was for anyone who wanted to go fishing on Sunday and if you don't like ye can walk the plank matie!
by Fishtracker on Mar. 6, 2016
24" of ice?? I was there last week and the ice was not even close to 24" This is how people can get hurt or even killed by assuming ice conditions based on bogus reports like this one.
by Cpt. Hook on Mar. 5, 2016
Lake should be renamed Gust-a-lot Lake...Ice was about 24 inches, splotchy but fine. Saw a group go out about 3/4 the way across. Caught a couple pike (they'll be there for you tomorrow) and saw lots of walleye on camera but none were hungry.
by Cpt. Hook on Mar. 4, 2016
To reeder: I called the Husky (sells bait) they were not sure about the ice, but said someone was buying bait today so I guess I'm going to try...four hours and a lot of gas if I can't get on the ice :(

The walleye are huge this year landed three 4 to 6bls walleye to day and tons of pike
