March 26, 2017….Ice Out Update plus “bonus video!”

Finally, an actual ice out report from on location!  I’m happy to report sufficient ice to do some of the preparation on the portage lakes……taking in fuel, repairing seats and other minor repairs.

As an added bonus to those “backwoods adventurers” I am happy to report a new trail has been created into Otter Lake (thank you Burton Penner).  No more wandering aimlessly along the creek and tall grass…unless that is to your liking!

The next photo has nothing to do with ice or Eagle Lake, but is me standing by a cactus.  Enjoy!

Bonus Video courtesy of “PJ” and a report on his trip last year to VBL…

Just a reminder, there’s still plenty of time to get your ice out entry into the contest.  Good luck and here’s to a great summer of fishing adventures in 2017!

I’m happy to see you post some of my pics, they turned out well.
