Has anyone made the walk out to the island or seen anyone out there? Made a trip Thursday night from 6:30-10:30 and caught 8 small cutts. Wanted to head out there but didn't see any tracks. I'm new to ice fishing Scofield and have only fished open water by the island. Also is it worth the walk?
Saw people in the middle of the lake today. I am sure you could walk to the island and be just fine.

i made the walk out to the island last sun . it was not worth the risk of the pressure ridges that pop up just about every way ya look . we had to walk in and over some not good and no way safe ridges on the way back . we got wet all most knee deep. if ya walk out that way in the morning it may not be the same when ya want to come back to truck. last sun was a weird day on the ice lots of ice moven and losts of new pressure ridges.

Guess that saves my legs from the walk. Looking to go out Sunday night again.
There are no preassure ridges if you approach the island from the west. Long walk that way though, and I'm not sure it's worth the walk. I've never found the island to be any better than anywhere else...
