When they net the whitefish, the method they use does catch but not many walleye and pike as one would think,,, and when F&W are monitoring a netting, it's very very strict. The anglers bring money down the way of Vulcan and Milo and Lomond,,, most of the commercial guys are locals/farmers, they know the value of the sportsmen to the community and are not intent on destroying the fishery.
Was at MacGregor today and all the snow has melted off the lake with the chinook, The ice is 3 inches thicker than it was 6 days ago. With no snow insulating and a decent cold snap, the ice should be safely driveable by New Years.
