A few pictures of the lake today windy today with some snow blowing around. We had about 4 inches of snow last night with some wind today picking it up in the air. With the warm temperatures this past week the lake had open water across zippel bay and Morris point and pine island also. As of this morning it was pushing back together and hopefully freeze back up. Looks to be in the single digits tonight and then a few more warm days before turning much colder. Keep your fingers crossed. Bostic bay didn't change much but with the snow last night looks to be flooding over the top of it and refreezing. Be safe and stay off the lake. Watch for futher updates.
Are good friend john flew the lake from Warroad down the shore line to the east and over pine island and Morris point and said most of the lake is froze over with a few holes off open water here and there. Hopefully the lake can stay put with a few warmer days ahead of us. With cooler evening temperatures hopefully it keeps making ice. Hopefully things are heading in the right Direction. It's very early so there is plenty of time to make good ice. The lake isn't safe to be on so do not venture into it. Some pictures show the south shore from warroad to the Rainy river and Morris point. Should have some more pictures over the weekend. Checked Bostic a little more today and that hasn't changed much 5 to 8 inches with a couple spots with 4. Need to give things some more cold days. Stay safe and don't venture out if you don't know where your going. Watch for further updates. Thanks everyone.
Well yesterday brought strong south winds and today there were lighter winds out of the south switching to the northwest. The sheet of ice from zippel bay to the Morris point gap. Stayed put. You can see along pine island and out from Morris point about a mile or so out it blew open. With warmer weather this week we will melt or settle the snow we have. Bostic bay is building ice and has areas of ice that are very irregular as far as thickness. Four inches on the low end and as much as 7 or 8 inches on the high end. Time and cold weather will help cure those irregularities. This week with some warmer temperatures expected it's all the more reason to stay off the ice. This is our job to check ice conditions. With years of experience in this business we can provide information to our customers and the public when we feel things will be ready for the fishing season to begin. Stay safe and off the ice right now. Things can change Quickly watch for futher updates.

Some clearer pictures of the lake this morning its froze out a couple miles at least a little rough but not bad. It was 9 below zero last night and calm so that definitely helps. We will have to watch this week and see if everything stays put and doesn't move. Stay off the ice it's not safe yet. Remember its early be safe. Watch for futher updates.
The big lake is starting to freeze up. Time will tell over the next few days 4 below tonight and tommarow. White ice in close but not to bad. Bostic bay has 3 to 4 inches but needs time to freeze up with more consistency. But its heading in the right direction. Stay off the ice, as it isn’t safe yet - it's just the beginning of freeze up. Watch for futher updates its early.
