      I was out there last Saturday (2/27) and there were still a few trucks on the lake (mostly 4-wheelers though). No idea how much that will change by this coming weekend. ...more I was just out checking on the camper and enjoyed the beautiful 50 degree Saturday and didn't fish, so can't comment on the fishing.

      Good luck and be safe if you go out and send a report on how you do. :)

      How thick was the ice? Did you drive on it?
