I tried to make it out to fish Chesterfield today, but didn't make it because the access road was drifted over and impassable. Normally I would have hiked in but I was with my girlfriend and dad with recent knee replacements. We got there at 8:00 and there were other roads that were a higher priority, but does anyone know who or when the Chesterfield access gets plowed?
After helping two different groups of people get their vehicles out of the ditch, we made it to Alexander for some perch fishing. We did OK, a lot of small perch and a few nice ones, biggest being about 11 inches. Not a bad back-up, but frustrated that we didn't get to fish at Chesterfield.
So if you're planning on fishing Chesterfield in the next several days I would be prepared to hike/snowmachine in or hope that someone gets it plowed out. Hope everyone is enjoying the early ice fishing season.
