Happy New Year from Crystal Beach

Tonya and I would like to wish all who read our blog a Happy New Year for 2012 and are looking forward to another great summer here at Crystal Beach. This is already going on our 9th summer even though it seems like we just got started!!
We don't have any large plans for 2012, with the exception of some maintenance projects on some of the cabins and finishing off the hunting cabins we put up down by Flanders Road this past fall. We did expand our tackle inventory quite a bit this winter so it will be stocked full for next spring.
Ice fishing here has began, we have about 8-10 inches of ice on most lakes, with some having a bit more. Early ice fishing has been pretty good so far. This past week we were doing some walleye fishing a couple of nights, landed about 15 each evening and the action was great. Lake trout opened on the 1st of January and we have been out only a couple times so far as the ice wasn't real safe up until now. The past couple mornings we were out and pulled in a couple nice lakers each morning. I will be getting out a lot more in the next couple of weeks. We still have a lot of openings for Jan and Feb ice fishing/snowmobiling, but March is starting to book up with the 2 cabins we have winterized for the winter enthusiasts.
Just a quick memo to anyone planning a trip to visit us this summer, you may want to reserve dates soon as June is mostly filled, and August and July are starting to get reserved. Contact us if you have any questions about any dates and we would be glad to get back to you.
Until next update, Good Fishing and Happy New Year!
