yeah it is a haul. And planning for February is probably a safe bet, we can get a better idea as the bays freeze. Generally, Shelburne Bay where I did most of my fishing has a couple of feet of ice. I do not risk it...and neither do the guys with Shantys. Most of them drive out onto the ice with them - or at very least tow them out onto the ice with trucks. So if there is shantys on the ice and smelt biting, I should know.

Keep lines wet and tight in the pacific
