Angler management Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I know Quinte is always considered unstable, but wondering if this two decade record ice on great lakes this year made safe for a snowmobile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 No ice is safe ice.... That said quinte is huge and while one place may be safe another may not be. Perhaps if u were more specific on the location we may be able to give u more of a specific answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 There are trucks driving out there in places, but if you dont know where your going, dont go. Quinte has sketchy ice in a lot of areas at the best of times. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Just got back, last year we had 6" of ice and that was good ice. This year 21", quads are all but usless because how deep the snow is on the ice, walking almost killed me and my cousin trying to drag the Chapelle out. You will be fine with a sled almost anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeytier Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Certain areas of the bay like Big Bay and Potter's have safe ice for sleds just about every year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just got back. Your good to go on a sled. There is some slush, but a lot of it has a crust on it now. Theres a good trail out, but off the trail is nasty in spots. Didnt see any quads, just sleds. Lost 1 fish, and had a few lookers. Pretty quiet night. S.

Angler management Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Thanks for the info! I will be heading out on Sunday with a few buddies, hopefully we can locate the fish. I only make a couple trips a year up there and lately havent had the best results. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
