Hebgan lake - cuthroat_guy - 01-15-2014 Hello, I have fished Hebgan every Memorial Day weekend of my life, it's a 3 generation tradition since the 30s starting with my grandfather. I was wondering how is the ice fishing right now? If anybody has been fishing it recently I would like to hear how it is. Just wondering if it would be worth a weekend trip. Thanks [signature] Re: [cuthroat_guy] Hebgan lake - BAC - 01-23-2015 I was up there this last weekend. There are three layers to the ice, 2" of good ice on the bottom, 8-10" of slushy stuff, and an additional 4-5" of ok ice on top. It held a snowmobile but there were little pockets (16") that you needed to steer clear of. I saw two sleds go into one of those pockets on the mud flats across from Kirkwood. Fishing was slow for rainbows but there were plenty of browns and whities. [signature] |
