FishingMN - IceLeader's Gathering, Sat. Dec 21

[Rick]

Hi Chiro,
we will meet at the Public Access at 7 am. Even if you miss us there we won't be hard to find. Just look for the largest Portable you've ever seen (the Condaminium). Will be easy to spot.

Those of you who do not post, feel free to show up and have some fun as well.

This was posted by Toad in the Prefishing Upper Hay thread in the Brainerd Forum:

There's good ice pretty much all over the lake. Only spot you might wanna steer clear of is the Jenkin's Creek inlet in the NW corner.

Was by Upper Hay yesterday and spoke with a few fellas out ATVing to their fish houses. Said they've had no problems, and the fish have even been cooperating.

The rain we've had recently won't help, but I think you'll still likely find 8-inches plus all over the lake.

[Note From Rick: Chiro ice fished it yesterday and found 10"-13" of ice wherever he fished. He siad it was fine for ATV's and Snowmobiles. As always use caution and be safe regardless of what reports say]

Ok, guys I think I have conviced my wife the ice is safe enough for ATV's. I think I will be heading up.

1. Is there a bait store in the town and where would I find it?

Thanks, I am heading to the garage to make a wooden christmas tree.

Chadly,
I assume that you will be going north on 371? You'll hit Jenkins and take a right on 16 I believe it is, immediately take the first left so your going north and keep going until you see the public access sign. Take that right, heading east now, keep going straight until you slide into the lake or stop at the parking area
