[quote sdcfan]I'll be staying in the cabins by Twin Creeks, so that should work nicely.[/quote]
I would recommend walking down in front of the lodge, and finding a nice spot south of the marina. That's an area we really like to fish. There is a nice stretch that doesn't get a ton of pressure between the lodge and all the parking areas from the highway.
[quote sdcfan]However, I have heard the ice is sketchy around the inlet, can this be confirmed?
... I'll be taking down a 4 wheeler so I definitely will try the east side.[/quote]
hmmm.....something doesn't jive here! I would urge caution crossing the lake on an ATV -- make sure you are crossing at either of the ends, or where you have watched others cross. As for the ice around Twin Creeks -- of course it will be sketchy (and open) at the mouth of the creek. Just don't get too close to open water near the inlet and you should be OK. But, please, please, please watch the ice anywhere on the lake. Heading out towards deeper would should be done so cautiously -- especially when crossing large cracks or pressure ridges. Make sure you check the thickness of the ice when crossing!
