Was on the bay at km 86 last week-end, could drive on about 300 yrds. Caught about 6 burbots, and 4 jacks. lost a couple more of each. Seen 2 perch, but by time i got a perch hook down they were gone.

Better fishing by the small island if you can get there, it's been mostly ski-doo access though, but heard a truck made it there with tire chains.

Ice should still be good well into april, Hope this helps & Good Luck!!!
