Has anyone been out to either of these lakes recently?  Is the ice starting to come off yet?  Would love updates as they become available.

Was out at Snipe last Tuesday (12th). Still more than 2 feet of ice. Caught about 20 perch, one 13.5 incher.

Really?  Crap.

Anyone else been out this weekend?

I was out on Saturday at sturgeon still Ice to the shores but its melting and not lookin so good. so that encouraging

Good news indeed!

I'm hoping they got the rain we did in GP.  That should speed the process up a little bit. 

I have two duffel bags full of gear that's just screaming to be chucked!

I was at sturgeon today casting room from the shore open from youngs point all the way down to the narrows

went out today (may 8th) and you couldnt cast from youngs point, I'm guessing the ice has shifted. The narrows are almost completely open and Williamson has enough room to cast however you snag weeds every single cast.

Went out to Snipe yesterday.  Had fun until the torrential downpour hit.. Quite a few bites, but all axe handles.  The big guys seem to be hiding out for a bit yet. 

Sure did feel good to get out and chuck some gear though!

I was out at snipe lake on the may long weekend.  I caught the biggest jack I have ever caught.  It was 41 inches long and weighed 18 pounds!  There were also a number of other nice fish pulled in through the weekend.  

It's been many years since I fished Snipe Lake.  Do they have a decent boat launch on that lake yet and if so where might it be?

at the  sunset house post office and where the store used to be turn right down that gravel road.drive for a bout 2 km and you will see it there is a green sign but the road is kinda rough you have to take it easy down the gravel road
