Comins Lake is still 90+% covered with ice. Ice conditions should be considered unsafe and anglers are advised not to access the lake. Sections of the ice are beginning to pull away from the western shoreline, however, at this time, there is no fishable water open.  With the increases in daily max temperatures as well as warmer overnight lows, Comins Lake could open up relatively quickly. Please note that NDOW has placed radio tags in several Northern Pike.  These pike will have an orange floy tag near their dorsal fin and a small antenna (~ 7 inches long) coming from their stomach.  Please return these fish to the water for research purposes.
