Ice

Made our trip to Bare Point in Sidekick on 19th with no problems.Then 24hrs later covered the same area by quad and there were 8-12" diameter holes in the road. This morning will be our last quad trip to Bare Point as we have to build a bridge to get from shore to ice.The ice has lifted and eroding fast from underneath at Landings.
We fished(slow and only small ones) the Elbow with 16" ice,French Narrows had 14" and Andrew Bay only had 10". The surface is honeycomb and some areas of old ice road it is like driving on cobblestone.
In Moore Bay you could troll from the quad along ice road in places.
I'm with Peter-boating by April 7th.
There is a pair of Snow Geese hanging around French Narrows, and a bumble bee was buzzing around us while fishing.Also seen a butterfly.
