Ice-9 Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 A friend and I plan to tackle the Brown's Bay ice access (off hwy 12) before ice-up. Hope to smooth it out and improve the slope for driving access to the ice, maybe move a few of those slabs a bit. My truck doesn't have very good clearance and if you've been wondering who left all that green paint on the rocks, well, wonder no more. Probably not that big a job, and many hands make light work. Anybody else want to pitch in, maybe suggest a date?ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grebe Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 You might want to check with the city fathers before you start messing around doing anything to the lake shore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice-9 Posted September 13, 2004 Author Share Posted September 13, 2004 yeah, good point. But not good enough...I'm not planning anything grand, so I guess this will be one of those "better to apologize than ask permission". Actually I was hoping mainly to meet some of the anglers on that lake and pump them for info. You guys can take up a collection to go my bail if I get jugged for it.ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stmichael Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I fished Brown's bay about 4 yrs. ago. quite heavily, I usually drove a Suzuki Swift, boy what a ride that was. Getting up that hill was not easy. To make it more interesting I had my fish house strapped to the top, home made 4x8 when it was dark, my house had a very lit up look to it red and white. It was scary getting off the lake, had to make sure no one was coming, never could tell how far I was going to be launched. big crappies though. I usually fished 12-15 ft. of water. somewhat in the middle of the bay.I could possibly help out, however, I do not want to about it illegally.

Ice9 Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 I'll check with the authorities. Would that be Wayzata, or the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District, or Carl Pohlad, or Al Lindner? Anybody have any idea?ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
