Ice update for the Ely area.
With water temps in the mid 30’s for Ely area lakes, we are starting to see skim ice on many Ely area lakes. Small lakes are almost completely iced over right now. With the current forecast we are expecting fishable ice somewhere by Thanksgiving weekend.
We are currently making ice on the lakes! Stay tuned to find out our best estimate of when we expect to be safely out on the ice for ice fishing season.
