mjhowe Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 You will have ice in March, depending on where you are. Big Dry arm, [PoorWordUsage] creek and the more protected areas will hold well into MarchContact the folks at [PoorWordUsage] Creek Marina for more advice. Keedp tabs here and we will keep you posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitetail Walley Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hey all!! I have never fished Ennis Lake during the winter, but was hoping to determine if anyone else has. Am I correct that the place to fish is near the northeast part of the lake where the bridge is? I was out on Ennis Lake two weekends ago (November 29th) and the lake was pretty much iced over with the exception of a few pockets of open water. Probably about 1 1/2 - 2 inches of ice. Definitely not safe, even for a Minnesotan. Anyway, if any of you are familiar with ice fishing Ennis Lake it would be great to hear of your success.

Doop Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 Is Hel Creek muddy during March because it's closer to the river part of the Ft.Peck? I've heard Big Dry Arm is very clear and a sandy bottom. Hel Creek has some huge fish on their HSOforum from last winter so I'm thinking the fish are there. How far is it from town to the Big Dry Arm? Where in the Big Dry Arm can you get on the ice? Anyone know how deep the water is in either of those areas?
