Muskoka Ice Conditions

[gravyriggin']

I am hoping to get onto the northern section of Lake Muskoka this weekend for some lake trout hardwater action. Any information on current ice thicknesses would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

welcome aboard, gravy! Have you tried calling any of the local bait shops up there? they should know....off the top of m head there's Minnow Man in Bracebridge, and Bait on the Lake just outside Bala...BOTL is my go-to guy...I'd give him a call. From everything I've heard, I'd head out on foot with no worries, but, I don't have any solid info for you regarding that portion of the lake.

Thanks for the reply Johnny,

 

I usually buy my minnows right by my place hoice on HWY 11 by the Muskoka Tourism centre, and have certainly been to BOTL a few times. I was thinking if the ice wasn't good I would head up Rosseau way and share the wealth at a local bait shop up there.
