muskiebayresort Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 All of us in Nestor Falls are getting excited about the ice fishing season.We are making ice!! LOTW already looks ready, we are going to venture out this weekend. Crow Lake is froze over, it is looking better than it did last year. Not a lot of snow that is good, it will make some good solid blue ice. Paul Trinkner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishinFreaks Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Good to hear ice is coming along. How is Whitefish Bay looking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskiebayresort Posted December 9, 2012 Author Share Posted December 9, 2012 Went out to check the ice on LOTW today in Nestor Falls, we had 8 inch of ice. Saw 3 guys on 4-wheelers going across the lake. Kids were on LOTW playing hockey. I will be going out in the next few days and see if I can catch some crappies, walleye, perch and pike. I will keep you posted on Whitefish Bay also, hope to get up there in a day or two. Hope to see you on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskiebayresort Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 We are making ice, experiencing some very cold weather. We don't have a lot of snow so we are making solid ice. There is 8 inch on LOTW 4 wheelers are driving on the ice. Crow lake is froze over as far as I can see, looking a lot better than last year.

FishinFreaks Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 When you say Lake of the Woods, are you talking about Whitefish or Sabaskong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastwind Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 The section of LOW that M.Bay Resort is closest to is Steven's Bay, just North of Nestor Falls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskiebayresort Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 We did not get any of the rain turning into heavy snow that the Pipestone area got. We have about 10-12 inches of great ice on LOTW Stevens Bay between Sabaskong and Whitefish Bay. Gordy plowed out to Cyclone and reports that crappie fishing is great. I went out today myself for a while, I am going to put more time in tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishinFreaks Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Any word on how ice on Whitefish is coming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskiebayresort Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Went up to the south east end of Whitefish Bay where I fish for Lake Trout, Pike, Whitefish and Smallies on LOTW and I found 5 inches of ice. We have had some cold temps with a minimum amount of snow, with no slush. This week we are expected to stay below 0 F for days. It is diffently better than last years ice at this time. Hope to see you on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muskiebayresort Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 I am sorry but you must have misunderstood my ice condition report, I have not been fishing for trout and will not be fishing for trout until the 1st of the year. I have been out fishing for crappies and pike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastwind Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 WFT,On another topic, has has your Narrow Trail bracket for your auger been holding up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welfedted Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I could not be happier. It worked great last season, and I hope to use it again come the 1st. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! WFT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishinFreaks Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 What's the narrow trail bracket? Picture? Link? Sounds nice by the name. I'm assuming it has the auger coming off the back of a sled instead of side to side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welfedted Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 If you look back at my post on 2-21-12 regarding ice fishing report Morson you'll see a picture of it in the backround. WFT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
