For information about current conditions at Eloika, you might try calling Jerry's Landing (509) 292-2337 or from outside the Spokane/Elk area 1-(888) 292-2337. They can give you the up-to-the-minute conditions as well as advice about fishing Eloika. Good luck.

Banks Lake...18" at coulee city....10-14" at north end. USBOR pumping water in at canal which make ice crack and heave...be careful. Most protected bays are the safest...

Eloika is good. They've been fishing it all winter and the perch have been hitting real well. I don't know how thick the ice is, but it is plenty thick, most nights are low single digits and some below zero.

I was out at eloika a few days ago, 16+ of ice where I drilled. Was on Silver Lake yesterday, I fished on the deeper breaks and there was 7+ and 9+ shallower.

I fished Bead Lake 2-1-09 and there was about 10" of ice there, although the fish weren't biting, not that I am a Burbot/Mackinaw afficionado. I might try it again this weekend as long as it stays plenty cold.
