The tough conditions have prevented ice fishing in any other spots on the lake so far, and ice depths are varying.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Even though the conditions haven\u2019t been ideal so far this winter, there are still months of Leech Lake ice fishing ahead of us. Leech Lake is a great place to catch Northern Pike and the famous Eelpout. Eelpout are caught mainly during the winter, and a great place to find them once the ice thickens is Walker Bay.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges of ice fishing is trying to keep warm! Many of the Leech Lake area resorts offer ice house rentals that make your time ice fishing much more enjoyable. These resorts are an excellent place to relax after a successful day of fishing while drinking hot chocolate and sitting by the fire.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The town of Walker, MN near Leech Lake offers many restaurants where you can stop to get a great meal and share your best fishing stories.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, there is no better place for ice fishing this winter than Leech Lake!
