After a 3' increase in level, the Manitou had receded the 3 feet. If any ice was forming, it would have been broken up from the level increase. We will check conditions tomorrow and post pictures for you. There is a reported 4" of ice at Vidas, which is 1 mile East of Clementson. Usually at this time of year, there is at least 2' to 3' of ice, if not more.

Limits remain 4 walleye, 2 sauger through February. We will be able to accommodate you soon. Getting ready to open up for those who want to open water fish in February. Stay tuned, we'll update tomorrow and get a date set.

Our earliest spring opening was February 20th and fishing was good. If the lake is not producing, possibly the walleyes will be in cleaner water in the river.
