airjer, thanks a bunch for doing this! It's got to be a HUGE undertaking and we all greatly appreciate your efforts.

Agreed!! Thanks.

You go Airjer, that map looks great!

You should fish with him, dude is crazy

[Jeremy airjer W]

You guys are to kind!

I have the easy part. I just copy and paste, and then make the best judgement I can for the general ice conditions in an area. You guys are the ones that have to go out, punch holes, fish all day, come home, and let me know whats up. Without you it doesn't work! So my hats off to all of those who help and especially those who have helped over the last three years!!!!!

It really is a lot of fun to do and like I mentioned before quite the educational experience.

10" of solid black ice ( 3 different spots ) on South Twin lake near Pinehurst resort near the town of Naytahwaush, Mn. Decent early season walleye lake.

I new I heard of Waubun, MN before and then it came to me. Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs was up there shooting a segment on leach harvesting. That wasn't with you was it Leechbait?

Iowa great lakes have a min of 6in. and in the bays and protected spots have 10in. Should be even thicker since the high today was around -5.

Thanks again to Northlander for the excellent job organizing this get together and to the Wagners(Hi Banks Resort) for there hospitality and donations for the drawing after wards!!

Thanks again for the ice info!!

[fishon68]

Was on Lake Alexander on Saturday,8-10 inches of good ice, 4-wheelers and snowmobiles driving around and 1 not so smart truck,fishing a little bit slow, but managed a couple eyes.

[bassNspear]

will have a report on Saturday on Maple Lake!

[Northlander]

15" of ice where I was on Fish Lake north of Duluth tonight.

A bit of slush after the big snow we got but we are on a week long streak of below 0 temps so it should lock up real good. Usually spots with a lot of perms is the only slushy spots or by a few pressure ridges.

Many folks driving full size trucks. Many new roads plowed as well. Some of the better spots arent plowed to wich is good.
