[QUOTE="Jimhardy, post: 152040, member: 4937"] Hi Guys , Jim from Manitoba here . Just caught up on all your posts and sounds like some guys found the honeys holes and some didn't quite get the big ones they were after . coming from a guy who is on the ice all winter, yes the dirty water has become a factor but it doesn't take much to find the edge and that is where we have been finding the fish. Move move move ... that is the only mantra to follow when your on Big Windy. if you want to camp out in a shelter then your not going to get the numbers. as for travel, east side was pretty blown in this morning but a local has cleaned the path. west side access is fantastic , clear clean ice for miles , even a few small cars out on the ice. lucky for us the blizzard stopped south of us and we didn't see any of that snow. winds were absolutely nuts for a few days as some of you probably experienced but no snow accumulation which has created perfect conditions. Cold weather has come back so ice is still real solid and of course WATCH OUT for the open water at the ridges and remember the 2' crack you cross in the morning can be 5-8' wide by end of day when traveling back. This is the time of year the ice likes to really move. I have had a cancellation and have a cabin open for rent from March 27 - April 4 ( last day of the season. if anyone needs a place let me know at [email]jimhardy91@gmail.com[/email]. Good luck and as I have said in earlier posts if anyone needs a hand while up here call me at 1-204-792-1053 and I will do my very best to help you out with whatever it is you need. Jim [/QUOTE]
