sticky Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hey everybody I was thinking about ice fishing with a buddy at Muskey's Landing at the start of february and I have never been there and I was wondering if anybody has fished there and if they had any luck or info on what its like there in general. I've only ice fished a few times in my life and think it would be fun to get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 You talking in Port Severn?? Be pretty hard pressed for safe ice in front of there... They must take you down the road and onto the lake further down from the dam?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 You talking in Port Severn?? Be pretty hard pressed for safe ice in front of there... They must take you down the road and onto the lake further down from the dam?? Yup... Even though it doesn't look like there is a lot of current, there is. I wouldn't step foot out on that ice...

bigugli Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 The motel rents out huts and used to run folks out to them on sleds a bit of a distance out. Believe it or not, there is only 2-3 foot depth of water from the landing to the channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raf Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 when you're driving along 69, over the bridge you will see a little ice hut city in the distance beyond muskey's i am betting thats where they take you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticky Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Yeah I think they wouldn't have ice fishing packages and things if they didnt have somewhere for you to actually fish. Really just looking forward to getting out and ice fish a little and my friend is really excited and wants to try Muskey's Landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Raf.. figured they had to be down stream a tad from the resort.. as it's too shallow and not safe directly in front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticky Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Thanks. I still have to call them and find out more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticky Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 called them and i am booked. they said the huts are through backwater tackle and apparently according to their website the fishing is in hogg's bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzuluSpookd Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 You'll catch lotsa pike in Hoggs....early morning and late afternoon you may even catch a few eyes. The hut city that Raf talks about sometimes doesn't exist. Some years its out there and others its not...pretty shaky at times. You could be fishing on 10 inches of ice and 20 feet away is open water Good luck , and let us know how you do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syn Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 called them and i am booked. they said the huts are through backwater tackle and apparently according to their website the fishing is in hogg's bay Saw this little fishing report on backwaters website http://www.backwatertackle.com/fishingreports.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 called them and i am booked. they said the huts are through backwater tackle and apparently according to their website the fishing is in hogg's bay So you stay in Severn and then have to drive to Victoria Harbour to fish?? Depending on their pricing I'd stay in a hotel/motel in Midland then instead... Was pretty sure the location wasn't condusive to ice fishing.. so I browsed my aerial photos. This is during VERY good ice last year. X marks Muskey's Landing Resort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
