Hi everyone, I am new to ice fishing in this part of the country. I live in Langdon, and was thinking of going to badger lake. Can some one point me in the right direction, as in lures and spots.
Ice thickness would be good too.

Thanks

I have fished there several times. Try dangling a large sardine or anchivie at the north end or the west side. The dam on the south side is ok too. There are lots of big flat areas that have about 5 to 10 fow with some weed. That is where the big girls hang out. Don't be surprised to see lots of whitefiish too. They don't get that big for a reason,lol.

I used to catch a few nice perch out of there back when the lake was first made but haven't caught any since. I did see a couple small ones a couple years ago on the camera so they are still around.
