We were out on Lobster yesterday and the ice looked good. Last night we had over 1.5-inches of rain and it is still raining as I write this. The shoreline ice started to move away sometime last night. I'm thinking with all this rain the late ice panfish bite will be in full swing.

This rain will be certain doom for the ice. Although I haven't been able to get out, this is by far the latest late ice panfishing I can recall in recent years. When is the last time you were out on the ice in the 3rd week of March (south of Mille Lacs anyways)

Last year. I was out ice fishing well into April last year. My cousin caught a limit of big slab crappies on the ice from Rush Lake April 24th last year.

The ice out date for Rush last year was April 24th. Did you use a canoe to get to the ice?

He found a small bit on the north end of west. It may have been the 21st. I will call him to double check.

I'm sure there was some ice somewhere. I guess I'm not that hardcore. My last trips always seem to be the first week of March. I'd be out there now if I could.(maybe not today, but this past weekend for sure)
