The latest chilly and snowy climate is not unhealthy information for everybody. Ice fishing is not far off now with temperatures constantly within the 20s and 30s over the previous week and temps anticipated to drop to the teenagers for highs over the weekend and single digits anticipated in a single day. Glen Schmitt from Out of doors Information joined me on WJON. He says if the cooler climate continues some places about an hour north of St. Cloud and past must be protected for ice fishing. He says some skinny lakes and a few which might be sheltered from the wind have been ice lined for a few week.

Schmitt explains he is acquainted with just a few folks ice fishing on small our bodies of water in North and South Dakota earlier this week. He says places like Crimson Lake and Leech Lake in Northern Minnesota are standard locations for ice fishing early within the season.
Up to date deer looking harvest numbers are a bit down. Schmitt says essentially the most not too long ago reported numbers from the Minnesota DNR present about 109,000 deer harvested for simply the gun season which is down about 11% from final 12 months. He says combining all of the deer harvest numbers to date 138,000 deer had been shot which is down 20% from final 12 months. The explanation for the decreased numbers could be blamed on chilly and windy climate through the first weekend and fewer deer licenses bought.
