Ice fishing at Banks Lake.

I have had several PM messages this week asking about the ice on Banks Lake. I only know about the south end of the lake by Coulee City. If anyone is interested the ice is over 6-inches thick at the boat launch now and the entire south end of the lake is frozen over. But I don't know how thick the ice is out on the main lake. This arctic blast we are having has to be thickening it up out there too.

I do know that the perch are in the boat launch area as I have caught some myself a week ago during the day. And just before the area iced up farther out we were catching Walleye and Burbot from shore within the City Part at night too so those are a possibility of that too if someone wants to stay out on the ice when the sun goes down.

If you are going to give it a try give me a PM and let me know what time you will be there. Maybe I can come over and join you. Fishing is usually more enjoyable when you are with someone.
