Highpoint lake

I have never fished here before but have heard that there is good ice.  I am hoping someone can give me some information about the lake.  Like where to park and some areas to start.  I dont need anyones honey one just if you know an area that is a good place to start.  Pm's are welcome

 

There is an access road that takes you to the dam, but I'm not sure if it's open in winter or not.  That would be a third parking spot.

 
I haven't made it up there in the past 2 winters but for the 10 to 15 years prior the gate at the end of the road has been closed every time I've went by.  Usually I believe it's open again about April 1st.  It's an uphill drag the whole way if you head down towards the breast to fish and park there.   Travel light.  It's also a long haul there from the other 2 parking lots especially if there's drifted snow on the ice.

Well me and my brother left early this morning to head to highpoint.  in total today we had 7 flags go up, lost something big under the one hole.  Landed one walleye through the ice and the rest seem to just take half of the minnow off the hook.  Also caught some small gills and perch.  It was a good day on the ice.  I didnt find any ice under 4 inches with most of it being over that
This is the eye that came home with the assassin lol

Walleye was caught on tip up

Sam:  Used to love going up to that place to fish both summer and winter but hardly ever hit it any more.  If you were ever up there ice fishing back in the 1970's do you remember the people who drug the shell of an old car out and used it as a shanty?  I always wondered if it is still on the bottom or if they were able to drag it off the ice.  I know it was up there for at least one whole week with no one around it.  It was on the south side down near the limestone quarry.
 
Or how about the times with that wind there would be a group of guys with lawn chairs holding a sheet between them and they were holding races letting that wind blow them across the ice.  If it was sheet ice they could go quite aways.

almost in that same area just more straight out from the launch more towards the other shoreline than the middle

I talked to a guy who said there was 4 or 5 inches on last Sunday. I'm sure the warm weather didn't help but it's been cold the last 3 days I think there will be good ice and I'll be out there with 2 buddies. Ill probably be in orange coveralls fishing out of the clam ice fishing hut. More then likely we'll be out from the cove to the left of the launch. If I dont see u good luck.

According to eyeassassin the ice is still good.  We plan on trying tomorrow.  Will post how we do.
