Upsala Area

[Schwanny]

I'm headed up ice fishing in a couple of weeks. I was just wondering what the snow situation is up there. Does anybody have an idea on how much snow or slush is on the lakes. Any info. would be appreciated. Thanks.

Schwanny,
I would assume that you are going out on lac des mille lac? I talked to some folks up there that were saying there is quite a bit of slush on there but there was some areas that were firm enough for sled or atv travel. Have you fished this area much? I am interested in learning more about this lake and others in the area so would sure appreciate any reports or info you could pass on to me.If your still interested in more info on this area let me know and I can hook you up with the few resources I have found. Best of luck to you up there.

I have fished the lake the past 10 - 12 years and know it quite well (summer). I started ice fishing the lake last year and had a blast. We are going up this next weekend (13th - 17th). We usually stay at Pine Point. Larry and his wife just sold their share of the resort to another couple from Wisconsin. If you are looking for any info. I would be glad to help you out. If you go to pine-point-resort.com and go to the pictures, there are two guys holding up a stringer of walleye. The big guy is me and my wife is right next to it holding a northern that is on our wall.

Hello again schwanny,
Good to hear of your past good luck on the lac. We haven't been over to pine point but stayed at sawmill bay last fall. Only fished one day at the mouth of the savanne river and had a blast. Weather was brutal(snowing and high winds) but we caught fish!My wife and I actually own a section of land east of upsala that we bought a couple years ago and am very intersted in learning as much as possible about the lakes in this area. We plan to build a little no frills shack up there and use it as a fishing getaway place someday. (People always look at us like we're crazy when we say that!)So far I have found the area fishing to be decent but have a lot of water to explore. I'm interested in anything you can pass on about this area. Could you email me at [email protected] and I'll gladly pass on the sources of info I have found. Thanks and good fishing to you!
