12-1-24 Ice Update;

Lake of the woods has frozen over as far as the eye can see from Morris Point on the south end! This bodes well for us being “on time” (we look at December 10th being on-time for starting to bring houses out to the lake)as far as the ice fishing season goes here to start the 24-25 campaign! That being said we have a system moving through being capped off with a (currently) forecasted NW winds of 20+ on Wednesday, so we are now on a wait and see basis on when we give the green light to start our season until after that passes through.

The other pictures we’ve attached to this post are the view of the Bostic Creek from our landing and as you can see, it appears to have locked up as well since we last updated on Tuesday. And finally we have a view of the Rainy River from the Wheelers Point landing and it looks well frozen over as well!

Please remember to check with the local bait shops, outfitters and guides before venturing out on the lake, river or back bays and we will be updating you again following the storm front on Wednesday with an outlook on when we will begin our season! We have early ice availability but our prime dates are filling in quick so don’t wait! Book your ice fishing adventure with Sweets Fishing today by calling 218-368-7323 and we will see you on the big lake very soon!
