Lake is wide open and fishing has been fair. Better if you can catch a day with less white caps, which has been hard the last couple weeks.
Fishing has been fair. Plenty of open water, only ice today was on the east end of the lake.
Lake is 3/4 iced over with some fishable open water on the north shore. fishing has been good if you can get a day with the open water being accessible.
Fishing has been slow as the ice has been not cooperating. Lake is almost completely capped with a small open area on the west side in the middle. Ice is very clear but appears extremely thin.
Lake is capped but ice conditions very and are thin around the shore. 1.5″-3″ of ice. Fishing has been hard to report with ice conditions changing daily.
